The National Football League has locked out its officials, opting to use replacement crews instead. The league has pulled these officials from small-college conferences, high schools, and one even came from the Lingerie Football League. It’s not surprising that the replacement officials have received universal scorn, even from within the football establishment. There have been countless blown calls and numerous examples of officials clearly not understanding the rules. *http://sportsfans.org/2012/08/the-nfl-needs-to-end-the-referee-lockout-immediately/ Sign this petition!
