Well, the AFC and NFC championships were played yesterday - and what a pair of games! The Rams visited New Orleans in the NFC, and in the AFC, the Patriots visited Kansas City. Both games went into overtime, and in each game, the visiting team won.

Lol! I really didn't have a team I wanted to win yesterday, but, yeah, I was kinda hoping KC would beat the Patriots.

I heard on the news that Sean Payton of the Saints was having their lawyers sue the league over the non pass interference call that obviously cost the Saints their game against the Rams Had the call been made the Saints would have, in all probability, won the game. I remember another game - the Steelers against the Chargers as I recall - where two more obvious non calls allowed the Chargers to win when they shouldn't have. Both non calls resulted erroneously in the Chargers scoring touchdowns. It's pretty bad when bad calls (or non calls) on the part of the officials affect the outcome of the game. Maybe the league needs to make calls subject to replay if a challenge flag is thrown. Something clearly needs to be done.

I normally only watch hockey (a little football since the Lambs left STL but not much), but what I will say still applies to the NFL. A team should be able to use their review for any reason at any time. There should no "you can't use a review to appeal a flag/non-call"
As to the matchups, I was really pulling for the Chiefs as prior to '95 they were our hometown team. Had they not been offside on their turnover very late in the game, they would have won.
Although the Rams left STL, I do find myself still pulling for them since many of the players played in STL.
I hate everything about the Patriots. I hope the Rams slaughter them
