Ed Hochuli isn’t handling life very well according to Yahoo Sports. Apparently, the referee of the San Diego Chargers, Denver Broncos Game feels horrible for the blown call late in last sundays game. He is reported as saying that
“I’m getting hundreds of emails – hate mail – but I’m responding to it all. People deserve a response.
You can rest assured that nothing anyone can say can make me feel worse than I already feel about my mistake on the fumble play. You have no idea …
Affecting the outcome of a game is a devastating feeling. Officials strive for perfection – I failed miserably. Although it does no good to say it, I am very, very sorry.” - Ed Hochuli
It’s good to see a referee man up to a mistake. People need to lay off of this guy though. He is one of the best referee’s the NFL has. I honestly love when he ref’s Cowboy games, he has historically been very ‘Fair and Balanced’ in his calls. I hope this hate mail stops soon, it would be a shame to see the quality of this great referee fall because of one mistake.
