It seems NFL referee Ed “Gun Show” Hochuli cannot avoid controversy this season.
In the second quarter of the Minnesota Vikings‘ 30-27 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Monday night, the referees missed a call which resulted in a fumble.
Minnesota linebacker Chad Greenway grabbed Reggie Bush’s face mask before sliding his other hand around the flashy running back’s body to force a fumble. The Vikings were awarded the ball, even though replays clearly showed the infraction - much to the dismay of the crowd and television viewers.
Juice: Ed, you have clearly lost your edge. Your biceps, which once represented the “Gun Show”, are now shaded with colors of ‘WTFedness’. Three obviously missed calls already this season have nuked your legacy. Only an attorney could pull of this feat.

Hochuli is senile this year for some reason.

I don’t blame Hochuli for missing this call because it was not his to make. He is only being brought up because he was on the field. The rest of his team missed the call on this one.
But it is time for him to retire and join the WWE.
