Who said full-time officiating would solve everything?
It's one of many solutions that are being and should be considered. Whether we want to admit it or not, there are problems with the officials and the officiating system in the NFL. I've heard more than one person say, "I gave up on pro football. No one can get a fair game." And while I don't necessarily agree with that statement, it's become common knowledge that there are problems in the system. We can sit around and be defensive and deny that they exist, or we can come up with some solutions.
The old guard will always deny and protect and fend off change. That's too bad because we could be so much better, give the game a better name, and make the game more fair.
But if you're not even willing to admit there's a problem, there will never be improvement. And that is sad indeed.
