IIRC, the refs do go to school and are critiqued, but they aren’t paid for a full time job and they should be. They can go to mini camp and spring training too and practice on getting it right!

yeah, I know, I didn’t mean that they didn’t, and don’t know why I put it like that….but the job is so demanding and pressure packed, that it needs to be a full time gig….studying tapes etc just like player…staying in condition…the league can get by without some program like that, but I’m a ref guy too….they do a fantastic job overall, but they are clearly are not on the same page….in the 3rd quarter of the Cowboy/Vikings playoff game there were like three holding calls in a row that should not have been called….that’s 30yards and a couple of first downs…the Vikings went on to score….the replays were clear proof that the calls were bad each time
