I still can't believe that anyone would think that revenue sharing from MLB for the MiLB officials was a prudent (let alone possible) idea. At least I am not alone in my astonishment.

The NFL uses the two Arena leagues and NFL Europe as training grounds. I believe no official has gone straight from college ball to the NFL in at least the last five or six years.
