[QUOTE="gwh11, post: 459613, member: 4910"] A few questions for the folks that have offered opinions on this topic: How much of a compensation package should the refs receive, if indeed they are asking for too much? How should their compensation be measured? Against refs from other pro sports? Shouldn't the current success of the business enterprise (and not the current economic climate) figure in to whether it is "right" or "acceptable" for the workers to bargain for better wages? Are the NFL's revenues declining, and that's why they would like to tighten the belt on this matter? I don't know all the answers here, but I disagree with those who automatically reject what the NFLRA is doing simply because it's a union. As Ronald Reagan famously said in his 1980 Labor Day address: "...these are the values inspiring those brave workers in Poland … They remind us that where free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost."
