Last night. Early this morning, the NFL announced that they have come to terms on an agreement with the Ref’s Union. Thats great news for everyone. Does that mean the real Ref’s will make all the right calls? NO. We have been complaining about the officiating in the NFL since I can remember. Blown calls every game.
The replacement Ref’s were not good for the game of football. It was an embarrassment to watch them blow call after call. This past weekend’s games were a perfect example of how bad the officiating has been in the NFL. Replacement Ref’s or not, they have been terrible.
It will be better for football to have them back in action. Im sure they will feel good to back to work. I am a fan of the few well known Ref’s. They make watching a game a lil more exciting. But they are human, and being human brings error along the way. They will hear all the criticism after they make there first blown call. They always miss the constant holding from certain teams. It’s like the league allows them to get away with it. Only call the obvious calls.
As long as the Ref’s get it right. Get the rules’s right. The league has changed from a hard-nosed smack you in the face league to a much more cautionary approach. I agree with some of the new precautions. I DO NOT AGREE with the favoritism they have for certain teams and players. Rules they make to protect all players is one thing. Rules made for certain teams is BS!!!
The Ref’s need to let the players play the game and not dictate the action and flow of the game. Too many instances that the Ref’s control the game. Its not about you Ref’s. Its about the game being played the right way. If they can make the right calls, we all will benefit and enjoy the game we all LOVE.
