That is fine that they want new blood and I am not saying that fans love officials. But the mistakes that are made are often procedural rather than judgment. Not many times did NFL officials not enforce a penalty from the proper spot. Or award timeouts that were not there. Or the ball is put in the wrong spot by several yards. Those are different than missing a PI or not calling a holding here or there. Heck this weekend the officials picked up a flag on a clear BIB. We all make mistakes and if you saw my game this weekend we had a doozy, but my situation was not on national TV either.

Peace
