Referees union and their demands

[Psycho_X]

I hope the NFL fights off this ludicrous demands of the refs. I'm with the below guy. These guys have been horrible for years and they want huge raises and no accountability. Now, the NFL doesn't help them with the way they write their rules these days and tell them to enforce. Frankly both sides suck when it comes to putting games in the hands of these jackoffs. But fixing the problem needs to start somewhere.

Apologies if already a thread but didn't see one.

Like my Pop use to say, "these NFL officials are not worth the powder to blow them to Hell". It seems to me like they are even worst now then back then even to the fact, that sometimes it looks as though the fix is in. The only way these no talent dick heads can get on a football field is by officiating a game and as bad as they are they should be paying us for letting them do it.

They get over $350,000 per year? They should be full time for that salary.

I would even agree with a 30% salary increase if they agree to be full-time officials and more accountability.

Let's let the players play and not have to rely on the competence/bias of the officials.

Vinodick definitely has a bias against the Rams. His record in games he has officiated shows a huge discrepancy between the Rams overall record. I start to assume Rams going to lose the game when he refs.

One thing I've been saying for years. Make them do interviews and answer questions after each game like players and coaches have to. I guarantee you if they had to explain why they made certain calls or did not make a call when they should have, they'd try a lot harder to get it right.

That might make them reluctant to call anything during the game for fear of being ridiculed afterwards. However, there has to be a better way after the way the Rams were treated last year. Especially the TD that was called back after Dedich was called for blocking downfield and ESPECIALLY the 2-point conversion that was gifted to the seahawks.

After that stunt in the Seahags game giving them a two point conversion sent in by a talk radio sports guy I've had it with this league, fire them all and bring up a new class of referee.

Lets start with getting the chicks off the field.

Well they’d be answering for no-calls as well though.

No sport does that

Fire all their arrogant azzes and start over by hiring from the college officials. The officiating has been horrendous the las 15 years.
They can start by picking and training replacement refs now before the regular narcissistic Officials go on strike.

PS: Get the retired refs out of the booths

Not in the US they don't but yes it happens elsewhere. The Premier League actually has the head of officials do a weekly recap on TV.

 

[Ranma]

Yeah, count me among those against the zebras. It takes a lot for me to side with the NFL but the referees' self-centered egos and greedy demands has this as a no-brainer call. Eff them refs!

Agreed, and yes I should have clarified that US Sports dont
