Any comments ?? I may be off on the figures.. but, i'd say close. Those with definite knowledge.. please set me straight.

The big time refs - you're absolutely right. I'd guess there are fewer than two dozen NCAA refs making that much money, though.
Also, I don't know where you live, but 40 grand/year wouldn't get you much out here in D.C. Just saying . . .
The most important thing, though, is to have something to fall back on. A bad call will get you dropped from a league 20x faster than a bad pass will get a player cut from a team.
