Here you go, Head of NFL Officiating seen partying with Cowboys this week before the game

Earlier in the week, TMZ released a video of Jerry Jones's son Stephen partying with several people, including what appears to be Dean Blandino, the NFL's head of officiating. According to at least one person Jason La Canfora spoke to in the league, that is "definitely" him in the blue, skipping out of a Dallas Cowboys party bus.

Why did Bush and Bell disappear from the game and why did the Lions throw so much with a lead? Bad calls or not, they blew this one. Cowboys have had many of these kind of games.

you can't say bad call or not you would've won, because you don't know

nobody knows

It's nothing personal... It's strictly Business....

So i take it now that the bar has been set..any player on the sideline can run onto the field with no helmet from bench to argue call like Dez did....

You nailed it. This is the first time in the history of the NFL that a penalty has not been called when it occurred, now setting precedence forever more.

It can't possibly be that the officials just missed it.

I mean the conspiracy crap is getting more and more ridiculous. By tomorrow the Dallas Cowboys will be the ones who shot JFK.

If it was such a conspiracy, why did the officials help the Lions build the lead in the first half? To make the conspiracy more impressive?

*EDIT* I mean the NFL went out of their way to conspire to have the Cowboys win, while simultaneously cutting it so close that the Cowboys might have lost anyway. Do you guys have any idea how absurd you sound?

It was just before the start of this season. It's not like it was taken years ago.

I don't think there's a conspiracy, but as I said when it happened, it's crazy that they just ignored him. The Falcons special teams coach got flagged for running down the sideline to yell at a ref.

And your point is? R3P0 posted a statement along with that post stating that it occured this week before the game when in fact it happened back in August.

And yet Dez can run on the field and yell at the ref about a call...and not get flagged. Sounds right...

[Tony208]

Definitely the best wild card game.
