I hope this link posts. Seems Mile Slive took issue with remarks.

It was reported Sunday afternoon that former NFL vice president of officiating Mike Pereira had some harsh critiques for SEC officials.

Pereira, now an officiating analyst for Fox Sports, questioned the integrity and credibility of SEC officials due to multiple calls in SEC games the past two weeks. You can read his full comments here.

Interesting article, thanks for posting it.

Quote
In Alabama’s win at Tennessee on Saturday, Pereira called “bull” again. In the first quarter, Tennessee punted the ball away, and Alabama fielded it with a fair catch. A personal foul was called on the play, after which the officials huddled up. Pereira said it was clear the referees were clearly communicating with someone off the field again, this time about how to enforce the penalty. Pereira said 2:36 of real time elapsed between the end of the play and their official call.
I wish he would elaborate on just how he knows that the refs were "clearly communicating with someone off the field" as he said.  I mean, how does he know that they weren't just talking among themselves on the field?

This guy has always annoyed me on NFL broadcasts. He may be very knowledgeable, but he has always come across to me as a smart .... you know.

*This is merely my opinion. Before anyone asks, I have no hard facts or videotape to prove my point. This has been an unpaid advertisement by the cbbama99 for CRS poster of the year campaign, little cbbama99, treasurer.

There have certainly been some bad calls and no calls. But, collusion? He should have facts before accusations.

Now I have a question everybody. Who is this pietrea guy and is he even qualified to talk about the SEC. He works in a league where crooks and dollars flow. Because the NFL refs do that it does not mean our do. So where is your mouth rights? RTR!
