I agree it was heat of the moment, but I am also not going to back down from calling out the atrocities one does just because "he is someone's family."

I know it will sound controversial, but would you be so kind to someone who mugged and hurt your mother or a close one for example, just because "he is someone's family?" No, right?

I completely understand your point, but just because some one is some one's family gives them no right to be disgracefully unjust to someone else.

I guess you didn't hear about the fact that these referees actually broke into Barcelona's dressing room at half time and at full time trying to spy on the team's conversation?
