The classic loser's retort, it's the referees.

Brent Blum: Officials. Referees. Zebras. Enemies. | Cyclone Fanatic

(And before any of you clone lurkers accuse me of "obsessing" over ISU... this was sent to me by a buddy in Ames)

I thought only hawk fans complained about referees

That was wrote last week after their game against Baylor and to be fair the officials in that game were horrible. Not quite as bad as Iowa/Florida in the Outback but a close 2nd.

Yep bad officiating caused them to lose to Baylor by more than 3 touchdowns and to Mizzou by more than 5.

Do you Hawkeye fans know how to read? Blum wasn't blaming the officials. Blum is the biggest fan of officials ever. Read the article again

What is this reading thing you speak of? Must investigate for Hawk Nation

Ever? Do you have proof of that? Does he have a plaque designating him as the biggest fan or something?

Clones17 I disagree with you big time on this. I have been on the field twice this year, right next to this guy and have heard him get on the officials. I'm not a clone hater and typically go to more ISU games than Iowa games. Most Cyclone fans don't want to hear but this guy is a complete A--. I have seen it in person at ball games and in the business world. He loves officials when they are on his side and that's the end of it.

False. You will rarely hear him say a bad word about an official or their call. I've had many discussions with Blum about it

I guess it is clearly never during a game.

I'm guessing AHawk has Blum confused with Bruns as Bruns will get after officials. Blum will not

Cyclones17, you are correct. I do have the two confused. Agree with you on Blum.

I think he might actually be an official in his spare time so it's even worse. Officials should not be allowed to write about sports.
