As an aspiring NFL Official I hate to see the NFL Officials Association giving officials a bad name by asking for ridiculous contracts (i.e. full-time officiating) and then not negotiating with the NFL.
Asking for more money is one thing but waiting to the last minute before negotiating isn't going to fix anything. THEY ARE CURRENTLY UNDER CONTRACT and they all agreed to the current contract. OK, the NFL can afford more but at least negotiate in good faith.
Where can I write to share my opinion with those involved?

Why do I keep reading this on all the Discussion boards? The NFL officials are
not presently under contract.
Folks, if we're going to make such bold accusations, we should at least have there facts straight!
Also, the NFLPRA is not on strike. The NFL has chosen to replace them.
I don't have a side in this because I don't know all of the facts. I would suggest that none of us should jump to conclusions. But I do know bias reporting when I see it.It would appear that the press is tilted slightly against the NFLPRA.
