Replacement refs were hired in a rush; were background checks part of the process? | Shutdown Corner - Yahoo! Sports

I'm pretty sure this story will be getting greater coverage as these replacement refs keep performing horribly, so I feel it's time for it to have its' own thread.

In between what appears to be the NFL not doing its' homework on these scab refs, and the multiple horrible calls across the NFL games that came on last night, it's clear that the NFL really doesn't want this becoming a big story, because it will only serve to give the real refs more public sympathy in their fight against the NFL.

I'm with everybody else on this matter, the sooner we have the real refs back, the better.
