Goodell: NFL to consider full-time officials

[johnnyg08]

I agree completely with the other posters on here...what could they possibly be doing more of that they aren't already doing? They make plenty of money.

If you had a job paying $60-$80k and you were making an additional $15-$20k working D1 football, would you take a pay cut to $40k-$50 to start working the NFL? You'll eventually move up the ladder but unless they start paying them equivalent to what some are making in their current jobs, guys will chose their regular jobs over the NFL.

And go back to working on Saturdays.

This will hurt the game as several of the better referees would have to leave as their m-th jobs and careers would require them to be there. I would rather have Hochuli part time that the rest full time!!!!!
