None of this would be necessary if the NFL would make the refs FULL TIME, and DEDICATED to this job. This is a side job for most, who have another primary job. If they spent their weeks working out with teams, they would be MUCH more competent. Every other major sport has dedicated refs.

This is a good point. Does anyone know why the NFL lets their refs make this side job? I mean I know they only have one game a week unlike NBA and MLB but still doesn't that make it MORE important that the refs are of good quality since each game means so much?
