Eugene, Ore. -- Upset with penalties in Sunday's Super Bowl. more than 21,000 people have now signed an online petition calling the National Football League "biased," and asking for suggestions on how to rectify the problem. "We, the fans of the NFL, will no longer stand by and allow our pure game to be corrupted by blatant bias," states the petition, hosted on a web site run by Oregon-based Artifice called PetitionOnline.com. "Superbowl XL was the culmination of the most poorly officiated playoff ever. This is completely unacceptable and unfair to us fans who pay money to NFL teams in merchandise and ticketing sales with the assumption that the product put on the field is by no means fixed." The petition was the most active of any hosted on the site.
