This blog is a daily journal of my random thoughts. I could write about what bothers me, what I did that day, or more than likely, obsess about my 4 self-published books. Check out the "book information" page to find out more!

Replacement Refs need to go!
The regular referees for the NFL are on strike because of money, what a shock. The replacement refs are doing a horrific job. I just watched the first half of the football game and it took almost two hours! That's much longer than usual. The refs have no control over the players at all. The players and coaches have no respect for the refs. They are making horrible calls and are unable to break up fights. 300 pound men fighting is hard for anyone to break up. However, the regular referees can stop them because they have much more experience and authority than these "substitute" refs. These refs don't seem to know the rules of the game. I do feel bad for them because it isn't their choice to be a replacement ref. They are in a very tough situation. However, they should have gotten more training and they need to do a better job learning about when to call a penalty. They really need to gain control of the game, too. They can't have the coaches and players walking all over them like they have been this week. We will see how next week goes.
