It'd still be nice to be able to wear one....

For the money they're making, I might be willing to make the sacrifice. Maybe

That would be a pretty nice gig. My guess is that they could also make some good coin with a summer camp. Although, they get alot of scrutiny and fines for bad calls that affect the outcome of a game.

I just saw it on sportscenter, some girl who was singing the anthem forgot the words, so Dick Bavetta helped her out.

I think I saw the same clip, and it was an old guy who had problems with the anthem. You might need your eyes checked ref ;-)

I think these are them. Did a search and this is what I came up with. If these are them, yes, they are ugly.

Yuck!!! Those are ugly!

Actually, those old jackets look a bit better than the current ones. The ones they wear now make them look like they are going to a disco. Maybe they could get some butterfly collars to go with them and let their chest hair come out of the top. For a league that is quite stylish with regard to uniforms (compared to the other major sports), they really should help out the officials. I agree with the previous post, though, that I would love a shot to wear one of those hideous jackets.

For some reason, many of the fans keep telling me that too....

That image is NOT the jacket, the jacket is gray with blue and red colors.
