ex LFL refs working in NFL

After the Hall of Fame game in August, Mike Pereira let it slip that Craig Ochoa, the referee who worked that game, had been fired from the Lingerie Football League. The Lingerie Football League—which recently uprooted itself from its US host cities to barnstorm in Canada, the United States, and Australia over the next year—didn't respond to our request for comment on Pereira's charge then.

But now they have, and, boy, oh boy, this is great:


Because of the LFL's perception it is that much more critical for us to hire officiating crews that are competent, not only for the credibility of our game but to keep our athletes safer. Due to several on-field incompetent officiating we chose to part ways with with a couple crews which apparently are now officiating in the NFL. We have a lot of respect for our officials but we felt the officiating was not in line with our expectations.

We have not made public comment to date because we felt it was not our place to do so. However in light of tonight's event, we felt it was only fair that NFL fans knew the truth as to who are officiating these games.

If there was ever a reason for a public statement from a third-tier football league at 12:28 a.m. on a Tuesday, tonight's debacle was it. And, yup, Roger Goodell, you just got served. By the commissioner of the Lingerie Football League. Eat it.

what is that, the fifth thread that gif got posted in? lol that nicca must be proud as !! of that simple[..] crap

Heard this rumor before the pre-season started. I had only heard there was one ref that came from the LFL, but to learn that a couple of teams' worth of officials might be in the NFL? [pic] If proof of this comes to light then Goodell will have no choice but to pick up the pen and sign that new deal.

Y'all loved it last time [pic]

You keepin count tho nicca [pic]

As Whitney so eloquently put it, why not call out names and show the receipts? It's easy to make the statement he made and get the common idiot to buy in which is what he accomplished as we can see.

We know one name since Mike P shouted him out but what tells us there are full crews fired from The LFL working as replacements?
