Wife and I watched the games yesterday, mainly with no invested interest in any of the teams, other than those great lakes teams that never go anywhere (Browns, Bills, Lions... etc). So I guess "rooting" for them but without any real care into it.
Anyway, we get to the end, and I had pulled up this thread... and she catches the CBS ending where they say "Thank you for watching this PRESENTATION of the National Football League".
It really triggered her and made what I just showed her earlier (this image), 'click'. "Oh my Gawd, the NFL is just like the WWF!?"
Adding additional observation: Late in 4th qrt where Chief were driving, a Bills back "bumped" on of the receivers and pass interference was called. The announcer said its not pass interference if the ball is NOT in the air. Refs enforced it. But during the replay, you could see the perspective from behind the QB, and see this "chuck" in the background. Announcer made the observation that ball was not released yet so its not PI, but camera cut away and they moved on with the call. Basically... it comes down to 1 or 2 of these in every game that swings the momentum and ultimately the outcome.
