That's my biggest problem with both the women's and the men's league. They decide they have to use NFL rules (with lots of exceptions), but they rely on NF & NCAA trained officials so there is more confusion than necessary. They'd be better off using NCAA or even NF rules, but I guess that doesn't sound as cool.
