By June 2012, the league and the NFL Referees Association had not yet come to terms on a new collective bargaining agreement, thus failing to resolve a labor dispute. Accordingly, the NFL has locked out the regular NFL game officials, and thus have opened the 2012 season with replacement referees.These replacement officials consist of low-level college and high school officials. None are current Division I college referees since the league wants to protect them from union backlash and to let them continue working their scheduled games during the concurrent college football season. In addition, many of the top Division I conferences are barring their officials from becoming replacements anyway because they employ current and former NFL referees as officiating supervisors.After being locked out, the NFL Referees Association accused the league of planning to lock them out all along rather than negotiate a new contract.Furthermore, the referees contend that the lockout will jeopardize the safety of the players, and the integrity of the game, citing the fact that none of the replacement officials will come from the top college divisions and thus do not have enough experience to adjust to the speed of the NFL game and enforcing the various players' safety rules.The league has denied these claims, saying that they have negotiated in good faith. Nevertheless the NFL Referees Association filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board, accusing the league of unfair labor practices.Among the major points of contention is the salaries: the officials want better pay, that they claim will only cost each of the 32 teams $100,000 per year, in addition to continuation of their current benefits plan. The league would instead like a seven-year agreement, offering annual compensation increases between 5 and 11 percent, and convert the officials' current pension plan to 401(k) accounts.The league also wants to make a group of officials full time, but more than 90 percent them want to remain part-time and do not want to leave their existing full-time jobs. As a whole, the NFL Referees Association is not opposed to full time officials, but wants assurances that they are fairly compensated.Furthermore, the NFL would like to increase the number of officiating crews from 17 (one for each of the maximum 16 games per week and an alternate) to 20. With the three additional rotating crews, the league would like a bigger pool of referees to groom, especially with the number of top officials starting to age. In addition, the league says that more rotating crews will lower stress and reduce travel among the officials. But again, the referees want assurances that all of them, including the extra crews, will be fairly compensated.Reacting to the referee labor dispute prior to the preseason, the NFL Players Association has expressed concern, saying in a statement, "In 2011, the NFL tasked officials with increased responsibilities in protecting player health and safety, and its search for scabs undermines that important function. Professional athletes require professional referees, and we believe in the NFL Referees Association's trained first responders."Chicago Bears' center Roberto Garza told the Chicago Tribune that there is a familiarity with the regular referees on what they wiall and will not call, and so players "might be able to get away with more" when dealing with the replacement officials. After playing the first preseason game with the replacement officials, New York Giants' receiver Victor Cruz expressed his discomfort with the situation, saying, "I actually heard one of the refs, he'd only reffed glorified high school games which I don't even know what that means essentially."A Sporting News poll of 146 players made during the middle of preseason then found that 90.4 percent of them thought that games would be negatively impacted. However, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell stated that he believes that the replacement officials will "do a credible job", while both Dallas Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones and Houston Texans' owner Bob McNair each said that they do not notice any difference in the officiating.But Kevin Seifert of ESPN wrote that with the inexperienced replacement referees working the regular season, it is likely that games "will be impacted not by a judgment call – which happens every week of every season – but by an official who either doesn't know all of the NFL's rules or misapplies them."One of the replacements is Shannon Eastin, the first female to ever officiate an NFL game, but writers such as Darin Gantt of Profootballtalk.com and Sam Farmer of the Los Angeles Times lamented the fact that she broke this gender barrier as one of the strikebreakers.
