I have to tell you that we will continue to have referee's win or lose games weekly, replacement refs or not.

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

If they did, it was likely the one that gave GB a touchdown.

NFL, officials reach deal
Without prompting, President Barack Obama's spokesman, Jay Carney, on Thursday applauded news of a deal between that the National Football League and the referees' union.
''The president's very pleased that the two sides have come together,'' Carney said, adding, ''It's a great day for America.''
The underwhelming performance of replacement officials has drawn the ire of fans, players and politicians.
A blown call at the end of Monday's game cost the Green Bay Packers a win. Carney said the focus can now return to the games, not the officiating.
Republican Mitt Romney, campaigning in Virginia, was asked Thursday what he thought about referees coming back to work.
''I sure hope they do,'' Romney said, seemingly unsure that the dispute had been settled
