I know it has been a couple of years, and some girls do look older when all made up, but

When did Jackie Evancho turn 30?

So, another Panther game another picked up flag.

Now part of me is happy as it, so far, has been going in the Kitty's favor, but it seems to be heading towards being a regular event.

Do we just have some flag-happy refs, or are they really getting good calls reversed by a whomever?

I think all questions about referee quality have been answered -- in the negative -- by the third-down FUBAR at the end of the Giants-Redskins game.

In a league with quality refereeing, Jeff Triplette would be an ex-referee today, or at least demoted (my choice: chain crew). But in the NFL, heck, he'll probably be given the Super Bowl to referee.

A brief history of FUBAR moves involving Triplette - be interesting to see what kind of compromising pictures he has of the top bananas in the commissioner's office.

Mistakes made by Jeff Triplette and/or members of his crew:

-- 12/1/13: Snafu with movement of down & distance chains in New York-Washington game.

-- 9/30/12: Triplette blows whistle to call Darren Sproles down on contact while Sproles is still upright and in the process of fumbling the ball; blown whistle = no fumble = next play.

-- 12/26/11: Triplette picks up a flag thrown for holding (that should have been called) and tells the stadium and the TV audience that there was no holding "because it was a screen." No such rule exists.

-- 11/27/11: Triplette can't correctly inform Chargers & Broncos of rules for overtime; Triplette is forced to clarify rules to stadium during commercial break.

-- 12/25/10: Member of Triplette's crew throws penalty flag into face mask of 3rd string QB Stephen McGee of Dallas, almost forcing emergency QB into play for McGee who was forced in after injury to Jon Kitna.

-- 11/15/09: Triplette incorrectly starts a challenge review of a fumble when Green Bay had no challenges to use; he then fails to call penalty on Green Bay for challenging the play when they had no challenges left.

-- 12/3/06: Triplette's crew grants Detroit a timeout when they have none left; no penalty was called and Triplette admitted to both coaches and the reporters after the game the timeout should not have been given; Triplette was quoted after the game, "So, best to ignore it, best to play on."

-- 12/19/99: Triplette throws penalty flag into eye of Orlando Brown causing injury; after apologies are given, a timeout is called for injury to Brown; Triplette then prevents Brown from returning to field because the injury timeout was for Brown; Brown is out of league for next three seasons recovering from eye injury.

With that kind of record, he has nothing on the commissioner: he's just being groomed as the next commissioner.

Just today, an interesting article and interview with Gene Steratore in SI about the life and job of an NFL referee. If you've seen the replay on TV half a dozen times, they've seen it several dozen.

How about this one involving Triplette? (11/18/2001)

But he couldn't match the theatrics Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning came up with against the New Orleans Saints last Sunday.

Manning's fake was so good that he faked out the referee.

"I've been saving that one for a while," he said.

After throwing a 14-yard pass with 14 seconds left, the Colts rushed to the line and Manning took the snap just as the clock ticked to 0:00.

He turned to referee Jeff Triplette with the football in his hand and his head shaking.

"I unbuckled my chin strap and kind of whined and pleaded for one more second," he said.

Manning turned away in disgust and began jogging around right end. He appeared to be heading toward the locker room in disgust, even though the locker room was on the other side of the field.

When he got to the end zone, the Colts wanted a touchdown. But Triplette said he had gone for the fake and blown the whistle and the play was dead. After huddling, the officials put a second back on the clock and the Colts kicked a field goal.

From ESPN game recap: "I looked and there was still one second left when I blew," referee Jeff Triplette said.

Each week the Colts find new ways to make things interesting. To change things up this week, they decided to not give up 8,355 touchdowns in the first half and then mount a furious comeback in the second half. Instead they relied on the right leg of their geriatric kicker, only deciding to do something effective on offense in the last half of the fourth quarter.

But a win is a win. That's progress.

I thought you were commenting on the Patriots as of late.
