Noooooooooo way. I'd be severely suprised if Leavy is the WH. My bet is now on Mike Carey.

I've been saying Carey as well. My money is on him

Last night Pereira said the announcement will be next Wednesday on Officials Review on NFL Total access. Should be interesting to see if all the crew rumors are true.

I mentioned Carey a month or so ago when someone posted a thread on predictions for who we think would work the game. In reply to my post I thought that someone said he hadn't ever worked a NFC or AFC championship game which is a requirement. When did he work in either of those games?

Has Austin worked a playoff game yet this year? I'm thinking it could be him at this point.

I don't believe Austin had a playoff game this year. The Super Bowl crew usually comes from the 1st or 2nd round. IMO Carey is the better for the job than Leavy.

I could have sworn I looked it up and Mike Carey worked the Tampa Championship game when they won the NFC....I could be wrong though. As long as Tom White isn't in Detroit, we should be in OK shape. Does anyone else think Larry Nemmers is a possibility as well?

Carey has not worked a CC before, but I do believe that this stipulation is no longer required.

My source tells me that it is not Carey, and is in fact Leavy.

Austin was shut out this year. He didn't look like he wa thrilled to be out there, some days.

Nemmers I think should get the nod some year, but it is not this year.

Tom White you might see move to LJ next year to make room for 2 new WHs. Anyone care to guess who?

REPLY: JugglingReferee's post is 100% correct. And I'm thrilled for Tommy Hill. He's a member of our local association. He and I joined about the same time. Obviously, he had more initiative and more 'on the ball' than I did. When I began, I started off on his father's crew. I'm proud of Tommy and happy for his success.

I'm a little surprised there are 5 guys making their first SB appearance. Intuitively, I would lean toward assigning no more than 3.

I'll say that you're a great guy Bob. As for officiating, can't say that I've seen you work but from what I gather from your posts and whatnot, hard to imagine it not being true!

Austin wasn't totally shut out this year......He's making the trip to Hawaii the following week.

Pro Bowl

R- Gerry Austin
U- Steve Wilson
HL- John Schleyer
LJ- Carl Johnson
FJ- Scott Steenson
SJ- Laird Hayes
BJ- Phil Luckett
Alt- Mike Weir


So what's the thought about a PB assignment? Myself, I never liked getting All-Star games. Some times it felt like a consolation bone. What's the thought in the NFL? Anyone know?
