Congrats to a former Husker. Clete is reaching the top of his profession by being the referee for Super Bowl 50.

Good for him. Hope he can flip the coin correctly this time

 

[Red Five]

He needs to practice his coin tosses flips

Does this keep our streak of active players....err, participants, in super bowls alive?

I believe he is a lawyer. Its good the NFL will have a legal opinion readily available in case of a dispute.

Sounds good to me.

If Denver makes it, we won't have to rely on him.

Is Eric Martin still on the Pats' roster? I thought he was. So having Anderson on the Broncos' practice squad is a bit of a stretch but if so we should be good either way.

Apparently, Clete gained quite a "following"...

What with the game being in the San Francisco area, some of those "hot ref" remarks might be a little more disturbing than ones made by bored football widows...
