p.s. (Brad) I would share my thoughts with anyone (and have done so). Why do you think I'm here? And why do you think that I was looking for someone to contact about it?
I thought so because you said the following: Where can I write to share my opinion with those involved?
So, it appeared to me that you wanted to contact some NFL officials and comment on what is going on... Maybe I read that wrong though.
If I knew an NFL official I would have asked them first. Is officiating.com not a good source for this kind of information? I'm sorry if I have offended you.
No offense taken... This forum is a great place for this kind of information...
My point is that we, as officials, need to stick together. When the NFL officials get more money, so do NBA, NHL, MLB, and others. Then it filters down to the college ranks as well... So, it is a good ripple effect for many officials.
To answer some of your other questions. The NFL officials work about 60+ hours a week during the season and 20-25 a week during the off-seaon on officiating related things.
If you are interested in more information, I encourage you to read the interview with Ed Hochuli, NFLRA President, in the Football section of Officiating.com
Thanks,
Brad
