Only thing to break this impasse is the players decline to play and we all know that isn't going to happen.

I'm torn on the whole issue. How many of us, whatever level we call games, want to be critiqued by fans, by announcers, by those not in the business?
How would we respond if someone said "you guys suck, I'm not coming out this Friday/Saturday until our conference gets better refs" ? We'd probably laugh them out of the room.

I do know this. The current officials have all called, for the most part, at a higher level than I'll ever see. I don't have much room or experience to question them.

I understand the business issues at hand. I understand the NFL officials don't want to lose at the bargaining table. It is obvious that the flow of the pro games are inhibited at this point. I don't think it is bad enough to make me want to stop watching.
