And yet...this forum is about officiating.
Minor plot point to the Super Bowl.
Interesting side note here.
And the identity of the Super Bowl referee is something people here like to talk about. The fact that he's African-American, while somewhat noteworthy, is less so than when Doug Williams broke that particular barrier for quarterbacks 20 years ago. Luckily.
But it's still appropriate here. Though I do see your point in a general sense.
