Bruce Irvin jokes (?) NFL to ‘sabotage the Super Bowl’ by assigning infamous ref Gene Steratore crew to officiate

Right about now NFL official Gene Steratore is about as infamous in the minds of the Raiders and their fans as Walt Coleman (Tuck Rule). And it was revealed today that everyone will get to see Steratore’s crew officiate the Super Bowl.

In case you’re unfamiliar, Steratore was the one who whipped out an index card or piece of paper of some kind and folded it in half in order to measure a first down late in the Raiders loss to the Cowboys. All with an apparent smirk on his face that didn’t go over well with Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio.
