Happy retirement to you! Happy retirement to you! Happy retirement, Dear incompetent, overwhelmed, and outdated official! Happy retirement to you! From scorned fans and true, From old critics and new, May god have mercy on you, And Andy Reid too. How bold are you now!?! How bold are you now!?! You look like you drastically changed the result of a do-or-die game that you had no business calling! How bold are you now!?! Say what you want about the NFL's inability to hire people who are capable of consistently commandeering a product in which billions of dollars are invested, but don't say they don't know how to give those people one last hurrah! That "forward progress" call probably set the officiating profession back further than the sack-fumble would have set back its beneficiary, but at least Jeff Triplette can say that the stage was all his in what proved to be his swan song! All football fans outside Tennessee might vehemently disagree, but every long-time referee deserves one last chance to do what they do best. Which is quite obviously insert themselves into a violent, competitive matching of wills between over 100 superhuman athletes that are routinely risking their health for the result of a game that can become tainted with nothing more than an untimely blow into a whistle! Kansas City coaches, players, and fans will never, ever forget Jeff Triplette, and isn't the point of a retirement party to leave people with the false memory that the person it's in honor of was far more noteworthy than they actually were?
