And the NFL sure has become cozy with the gambling aspect. While the NFL flatly refuses to address the officiating in any meaningful way, and with so many viable options, it just makes one take a serious look at what could really be going on here.

It's not that I don't agree - I see it in a fair number of NFL games - but I'm not sure what we can do about it. It's not just an NFL problem either. There have been some dubious officiating at NCAA Div I games that make bad NFL calls this year look tame by comparison. Maybe it is the gambling influence, or just the lack of governance and accountability around officiating in the sport in general.
