I DO think it demonstrates a lack of judgment. And isn't that his job? Judgment? If a judge were to do something like this, he would have to be recused from any case involving the persons he socialized with. I'm not sure of this dork's official job duties but if I was shelling out millions on a team, even the hint of favoritism would make me want to have this guy far removed from anything potentially deciding the outcome of one of my games - unless of course I was Jeruh.

God bless America, people, this is not okay! What compels someone to do something so stupid?! If you wanna get on a party bus, double fist dom perignon and take bumps off of Chastity's (shes saving money for computer school) backside all night, that is your business, but for the love of common sense don't do it on a bus with the most recognizable franchise in the United States!

How is this guy protecting the Shield, there, Roger?

It certainly could be nothing more than him just going out to dinner with some of the Cowboys folks, but it certainly doesn't look good and shows incredibly poor judgement. If nothing else, he should've taken a cab or his own transportation there instead of a team's 'party bus'.
 
this just shows what chumps the public are for not realizing that the nfl is just another wwf, just with more resources and a more sophisticated stage.
 
His only mistake was doing it with the Cowboys. Most NFL staff are 49er fans so instead of scandal they just get media love, see his predecessor: http://news.kron4.com/tag/mike-pereira/

Mike Pereira: "I grew up a 49er fan ... I’ve always been a Niner fan or part of a Niner fan. I thought to me they were a team of destiny ... The refs always play a role ... To say that they don’t is probably the figment of an imagination ..."

You think everything is scripted and controlled and the outcomes are predisposed?

Is that what you mean?

Officials from every branch of the NFL office visit teams all the time. And they go out to high end restaurants and take limos, and in this case a bus. The only reason it's being tagged as a "party bus" is because the writer decided to name it that.

This is a non story that the media is blowing up because there isn't anything else to write about regarding the NFL. LaConfora shold apologize for this IMO. And if I was Blandino I'd be taking him to task for his shaft job.

Well, I don't know where that line is, but the article states some team officials feel it crossed the line.

He says that but how much cred does he have? He's a Florio type isn't he? Fast and loose with facts?

I just rub some people the wrong way, don't I? It must be soooo very frustrating. Especially for those who are the most indoctrinated.

Maybe it was the hippie schools I went to. Thankfully, they've all been shut down :cry:

I don't either. Just terrible judgement. As Thor said, regulatory people shouldn't accept perks from the people they regulate.

Slightly bad judgement, I think terrible is too strong of a word.

A thought crossed my mind and I wonder how much time the NFL refs in training camps spend with players, coaches and so on while they are in town.

You do rub some people the wrong way but I wouldn't worry about it because most everyone alive does that. It isn't important. Don't get yourself worked up. I'm just trying to figure out if you really think the NFL is as scripted and the outcome is predetermined?

Cuz if you think that I have some other questions for ya.

It'll be a cold day in hell before I lower myself to that. I've got more that i could say, but it wouldn't be appropriate on this forum.

A cold day before you lower yourself to answering the question? How is explaining and expounding on your previously stated position not appropriate for the forum?

If you don't want to answer the question that's fine, but there's no reason to say what you just did.
