In regard to the Chelsea game on Sunday and all of the B.S that went on, in my opinion, Mike Reilly lost control of the game early on. The referee is supposed to allow play to go on and not get overly involved. The actions by some of the players and the roughness in which the game was played was due to Reilly missing or miss calling actions.

As to the cards:

Lampard=deserved a yellow at most, got a red but it's been overturned.
Gerrard=dive, deserved a yellow.
Gerrard=kicking the ball into Kalou, at least a yellow, maybe a red.
Mascherano=probably deserved a yellow early on
Alonso=deserved a yellow in the Lampard mess.
Bosingwa=I'm a Blue's fan and I feel that he deserved a red, a fine and maybe a suspension.
