Goodell is a cunt but you can blame the owners for this. Goodell is their puppet, so it is their billionaire asses refusing to give the refs the tiny pay bump they are asking for.
I can understand it, they can't just cave to anyone asking for a tiny bit more money, otherwise we'd have more strikes like this... but come on guys, this is ridiculous.
Lets do some uneducated maths. :steiner:
Just counting the 7 officials on the field for each of the 16 games in a given week, that would be a $35,714 pay bump for each official... Makes a little more sense.
