When Barack Obama is commenting on a sports issue, you know there is something amiss. The President took to Twitter to issue his statement on the NFL and the replacement referee mess.
NFL fans on both sides of the aisle hope the refs’ lockout is settled soon. -bo

BOOM! Okay, maybe not boom but still. When the POTUS is getting on the ol Twitter machine to make a statement about professional sports, the league should probably look in the mirror and figure out what is going on. I could tell you what is wrong but it would involve a lot of nasty words.
In short, the league is trying to suck any last bit of money out of the real refs. This puts the fake refs in a really bad spot because they have no business calling professional games. They are not used to the speed and they simply are scared to screw up. That is the one thing you can not be if you are going to ref a pro game.
I think the debacles of this past weekend should speed up the deal making process. If they do not, the league has a serious issue on their hands. I mean, the issue is pretty bad right now but it is only going to get worse if they stand idly by.
The fans feel insulted by the league acting like we are all idiots. Get the real refs back and save this season before we all end up rioting.
