NFL vs NFLRA

I didn't know they wanted so much.
The premier league refs in English football(soccer) are full time and paid just over £70k(110k) for a season that runs August to May,not sure about pensions.
I think that the NFL refs deserve more as the traveling means more time away but surely $200/250k is more than fair.
To be fair I don't see why anyone earning $2ml if they stick around 5 years needs a pension. You shouldn't be hurting for money unless you are a idiot.

Well that's it.... These guys also have full time jobs... as it was described by Pat Kerwin on NFL Sirius.. a lot of them are professionals at their primary occupation E.G. Dr's, Lawyers, etc... They already have retirement and benis at their present employer.
