Its also boring when shit offensive play gets bailed out late with some grab ass PI call that was allowed throughout the entire game

Offensive holding is the worst.

It can be called on every snap...so the refs can use it to control the flow of a game. Sometimes they swallow their whistles.

Worst is when "Team A" is expected to win by a decent margin but it feels like the league wants a nail-biter. They'll start calling holding on every big play Team A gets so that they stay in 3rd & long situations. Team B hangs in the game long enough to make it interesting. Refs will throw some random penalties at Team B later in the game to even up the flags.

Team B gets a bunch of ticky tack calls and thinks the league conspired against them late in the game. Team A feels like they got a bunch of momentum killing calls early....and would have blown out Team B otherwise.
