People are always going to complain...

However, the 'regular' refs managed to get a game completed within 3.0 to 3.5 hours of kickoff. The biggest beef (I'm willing to publicly air) with the replacement officials is they are turning a compact, perfectly choreographed telecast into a baseball game.

I don't have 4 hours to devote to a game I'm not working.

Nor do most people...
