Saints lose Super Bowl trip to Rams after controversial no-call; NFL says "We messed it up"

They messed up decades ago when they decided their refs didn't need to be full time employees and didn't need to spend the offseason practicing.

This is a multi Billion dollar industry that just refuses to spend a little extra money and have professional referees. Ref's salaries are already crazy high but more than half of them have full time jobs outside of the NFL. Yet those same refs spent years NOT knowing what a catch is, they've spent the last few seasons not knowing what roughing the passer is. They miss holding calls every single play, every single one.

It's amazing that people can be so bad at their jobs and yet nothing gets done about it year after year.
