@AdamSchefter Talks between NFL and officials for new deal have broken off. NFL has advised all teams it is now working to hire replacement officials.



I'd love them to hire full-time refs.

After watching NBA games I have a new respect for NFL refs. Not sure replacement refs are a good idea, last time the NFL had them it was terrible.

This shouldn't be "cool" or "good" news to anyone. The NFL's refs are probably the best game umpires of any league/sport in the united states, maybe world. Despite how often people complain about calls and such, these guys are the most spot on of any other sport. Yet here we stand, getting ready to see a bunch of "replacements" for them because the NFL doesn't want to meet them in the middle.

You guys think NFL refs have been good lately? Over the past few years, I think they have been getting worse and worse. :shrug:

Bucman  : (18 June 2013 - 10:08 PM) well this isn't Lebron first playoff series, so I'm sure he knows that :shifty:\
RogerGoodell...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:08 PM) Half of them don't even care about the game
NY Diehard  : (18 June 2013 - 10:08 PM) I'm referring to this series specifically, not the playoffs in general
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:09 PM) Big three there
NY Diehard  : (18 June 2013 - 10:09 PM) It didn't happen last season and it didn't happen until the Indiana series this year
BigBen07  : (18 June 2013 - 10:09 PM) "Time to switch back to my Spurs jersey." -Heat bandwagon fans
Sarge+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:10 PM) Splitter with the elft hand lmao
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:10 PM) Maybe it's time to start covering Miller from downtown.
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:10 PM) The Heat didn't waste any time cutting down the lead.
RogerGoodell...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:11 PM) Mike Miller is easily my favorite player in this series
Tridentdawgp...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:11 PM) If the Spurs win tonight then the NBA goes away...
NY Diehard  : (18 June 2013 - 10:11 PM) #letitfly
Tridentdawgp...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:11 PM) Get it done, Spurs
BigBen07  : (18 June 2013 - 10:12 PM) Trident: Unless Crawfish makes bad calls /bware
Bay  : (18 June 2013 - 10:12 PM) It never ends.
Bay  : (18 June 2013 - 10:13 PM) You have the NBA draft at the end of the month
Tridentdawgp...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:13 PM) I see Randall Delgado had a good start for the D-Backs tonight. Good for him.
Tridentdawgp...  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) You could always see he had the potential of a Teheran but never could develop that slider and he got hit around being just a fastball/changeup guy
Bay  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) Eovaldi was throwing bullets
Sarge+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) SPLITTER
Bucman  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) time for Danny Green
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) Ballsy decision by Pop, leaving Duncan and Parker on the bench
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:14 PM) Goddamn LeBron

SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:15 PM) Heeeere comes Duncan
SteVo+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:15 PM) Unleash hell, Timothy.

Phailadelphia+  : (18 June 2013 - 10:18 PM) where is brons headband?
Bucman  : (18 June 2013 - 10:18 PM) Lebron looks strange without his headband
NY Diehard  : (18 June 2013 - 10:18 PM) did you see how hard he got hit in the throat? yeah, he sold out, but the refs won't call that if he doesn't because of how strong he is
BigBen07  : (18 June 2013 - 10:18 PM) He lost it fail after committing flops.
