Baker Gets $12,500 Fine for Criticizing Refs

Oh yes but one of the requirements is that you must have other full time employment. Judges, lawyers, business people and more.
Why not full time referees??? Or is that too simple.
Might help the product on the field.
For the 250K a year they are paying them (isn't that the figure?)...plus travel expenses, I would do it for full time.

Just about any of us would... But it looks like one of the requirements is a college degree... FWIW, here's the current list of officials https://operations.nfl.com/the-officials/these-officials-are-really-good/2019-roster-of-nfl-officials/
about 125 of them. @ $250,000 each per year, the NFL is paying about $32 million + expenses. Doubtless they get free airfare, hotels and meal allowance. Pocket change for a League that's raking in $4 billion- just on their Sunday Ticket contract with Directv.

Well...I have beyond a college degree....and my college degree has truthfully never allowed me to make anywhere near that kind of money on an annual basis.

LOL, not to get personal- but we're going to have to get you on a serious workout program before you apply. Don't want you having a heart attack chasing those guys on breakaway runs.

Well, we are just talking theoretically. At 67 years old (68 in January)....I don't think the NFL is hiring guys at that age.
In checking, the oldest NFL referee appears to be a guy named Walt Coleman, who is my same age about (we were born the same year). I think he is still at it.

Ed Hochuli was the oldest, but he retired when he was 67 (born 1950, retired after the 2017 season)
I had thought about getting into referreeing after I came out of law school as a sideline...doing High School or below sports, but for some reason, I just never did.

I've looked all over and can't find the new 7 year CBA pay schedule......yet. The old one, not too bad for a part time job.
......Under the CBA that expires in May 2020, officials on average earn $205,000 in 2019, up from the $149,000 average in the last year of the previous contract. This includes typically 19 game assignments including preseason, and other assignments such as training camps, offseason OTAs, and officiating clinics; playoff assignments are paid from a separate pool. According to sources, there was a “substantial bump in game checks” and an increased contribution from the NFL into 401(k) retirement plans.
“We see this new CBA as a partnership with the league that benefits our membership but also seeks to make our game better,” said Tony Steratore, the NFLRA president and a back judge in his 20th season. “We all must keep pace with the speed and skill of the players, not to mention the increased use of technology. It is good to get these negotiations behind us.”
The CBA does not include the replay officials, who are on a separate agreement that expires in May 2021.
------->
This agreement clears the path for officiating to avert a work stoppage, assuming that the league also wraps up its CBA with the players union before it expires after the 2020 season........
