    I just can't get into blaming the refs. Because every Viking fan I know (its not a lot) prior to Ras just loved to think they were Dana Litman and lived under an eternal ref curse.

    Its not just Favre or Rodgers, the guys I know thought Ditka got all the calls when he coached the Bears.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I don't believe in any systematic side-taking in officiating in the NFL. I also believe that over the course of a season, calls even out.

    It just seemed today that the net benefit of missed calls fell to the Vikings and it was magnified due to the injury to Rodgers.
