Agreed. There are just a few guys who always can be counted on to provide a curiously and inconsistently officated game. Tonight, we got 3 of them at once. Ken Mauer is pretty much horrible -- when I see him among the officials, I just cringe. Blane Riechelt can't even keep up with the players anymore and is one of those "I call it by feel guys," who doesn't appear to be overly concerned with getting things right. And Courtney Kirkland is so bad that a couple of years ago in Sacto, Jerry Sloan decided to take the suspension in favor of getting off a good shove after a confrontation.
