Poor Big 10 Officiating Finally Validated

It doesn't get much better than this:

The Chicago Sun-Times is reporting that James Filson, a former Big 10 referee (fired in '05) is suing the Big 10 because they fired him because he had only one eye. Yes, one-freaking-eye. No wonder Big 10 officiating has been the worst in the nation over the last five years! They had a one-eye running around the field all this time! I can't even believe this is true.

The only thing that makes this story better is that supposedly it was Lloyd Carr who complained about one-eye. Jackass.

Luke, I wonder if this guy could beat you at beer die too!

Editor's note: Luke once yelled at a kid with one eye at our charleston house because him and his buddy were beating them at beer die. I beleive his exact words were, "What pisses me off is you are beating us and you only have on f****** eye!" Sadly this was not luke's most memorable 'foot in the mouth moment'. Just ask him about the time he said,"What's up. Ohh, sorry I don't usually like to say that around you people" Luke, thanks for being your idiot self.

I thought of the same thing when I read this story, thus, "one-eye".
