Upset about the infamous Green Bay-Seahawks blown call?

Then, side with workers and support the refs' unions! Support ALL unions.

NFL refs get paid less than any other pro sport officials, and ALL of them are part-time employees. They get paid a pittance to officiate even playoffs and the Super Bowl. Think about the money the owners and networks make (I am excluding the players, because they are workers).

And, while you're at it, demand that Big Sports cheerleaders actually get paid. Many get nothing, and the few that do get paid get paid very little.

SOLIDARITY!!!
