Quote The deal will last eight years and includes details about officials' pensions and retirement benefits and adds a pay bump from $149,000 a year in 2011 to $173,000 in 2013. The pay will rise to $205,000 by 2019. The agreement will also allow the NFL to hire some officials on a year-round basis and hire additional officials so they can be trained. "This agreement supports long-term reforms that will make officiating better. The teams, players and fans want and deserve both consistency and quality in officiating," Goddell said. http://www.cnn.com/2012/09/27/sport/nfl-referees-deal/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 |
