Bringing back the “real” NFL referees was supposed to put an end to bad officiating. But after a questionable call in today’s Packers-Saints game, it looks like the old refs aren’t working out quite as well as NFL fans had hoped:
Looks like replacement refs AND real refs dont like the packers huh?

Refs still have their pension and still miss calls.

Packers now asking for replacement replacement referees

The only thing more comedic than the replacement refs is people who thought "real" refs were somehow different.

Quite a few fans say they miss the replacement refs — you know, the officials whom some Twitter users wanted to assassinate just last week:
I miss the replacement refs. They sucked too, but at least they weren't full of themselves.
