No debate on this end...just statement of fact.

I was only trying to say that the NFL system of hiring officials was more dynamic than in your original post. In other words the NFL system was not as ridged as the MLB system that requires you to go through the latter.
And that's where you are wrong. At the point in time I was referencing, they did require time in Europe before moving up.

After all, the OP was about a hypothetical and not a real situation. I would hope that we can at least keep that in perspective.
The only reason I responded to your post was that you categorically declared the information I received from the NFL office as inaccurate without considering when that information came or from whom. I always respond when someone casts doubt on my honesty.
