"I say a pox on your family to any official who works as a scab. You have forsaken your brothers/sisters just so you could say you officiated in the NFL. We are supposed to
conduct ourselves in a professional and ethical manner. It is neither professional nor is it ethical conduct to take another person's job under such circumstances."

Did you know that a current, long-time NFL official
"scabbed" when the MLB umpires struck back in the 70's? He bought a new car with the money he earned working games during the walkout. It all depends on which side of the picket line you're on. And how money-hungry you are. So much for "It is neither professional nor is it ethical conduct to take another person's job under such circumstances." Just out of curiosity, I wonder what his thoughts are on the replacement officials.
