| The NFL is getting what it deserves. It's all about money, and greed, and now that greed is biting them in the ass. Goodell wants a good product, but is unwilling to give the refs what they want. Pay them. Even if you over pay them, they are no where near as over payed as the players are. | |

| I have no problem with the replacement refs. They are doing their best. The NFL holds all the power here. People are still watching, people are still going to the games.
I don't believe the players are overpaid. They are paid what an owner thinks they are worth. It is that simple. If someone offered me more money to do my job, I'd probably take it. | |

| With all the injuries in pro football, my opinion is NONE of them are overpaid.

| Are we talking about the players pay or the refs? Three posts in to this thread and it is already all over the place.
Please stop blaming Goodell. He is hired by the owners. Have you noticed the owners have not spoken about about the replacement refs? Hell Jerry Jones said it made the league exciting.

If the owners wanted to end this they would. It's not Goodell's call.

It's not Goodell's call dude! | |

| I'm sure everyone knows by now but the lock-out is over. The real referees will be back tomorrow (today). Big shocker there... | |
