I'm one to usually give NFL refs the benefit of the doubt. Plays happen so fast that I certainly can't say I could do their jobs anywhere near to the level of quality that they do. In addition, instant replay has given them a level of accountability that wasn't there before. However, this line is the one that bothers me. They're paid well enough (or at least they should be). Why should they be allowed to hold outside jobs rather than focus on being an NFL ref?
