We've constantly seen example after example of awful refereeing and highly biased refereeing around the league. Why do the refs hold no accountability? Why should teams have to constantly compensate for a refs either inability to do the job or his corrupt calls? Aren't they professionals that should be expected to perform their job as well?
How fun would it be to watch a boxing match where one boxer can continually hit under the belt and do illegal tactics with no warning or point deduction, but the other guy must box perfectly or constantly get points taken away? And yet in football, we're supposed to act like these WWE refs don't exist and one team is just supposed to play better to such an extent to compensate for that. Not going to happen when teams are evenly matched. In that instance, the refs are able to directly control the outcome of the game. You can only play so good against competition that is a similar level. Having refs that are constantly penalizing you while ignoring the other team is literally tilting the game in favor of one team. If nothing is done about the refs, we just need to admit that football is just lightweight scripted entertainment like wrestling and not an actual competitive sporting event.
