It took less than 30 seconds to find this with Google:
SPORT..........AVERAGE SALARY OF OFFICIALS
NFL..............Between $25K and $70K
MLB..............$141K
NBA..............$128K
NHL..............$139K
It doesn't sound like the referees are the ones at fault here. The NFL is a multi-billion dollar business. I think they can afford full-time referees.

Chicken or the egg. Are they not paid enough so they are not full time or are they not full time thus not paid as much? Its on the table for them to be full time by the NFL. The refs are fighting against that. Why should they be paid as much as full time officials in other sports?
