NFL to use replacement refs in week 1

ESPN
Replacements will be on the field beginning next Wednesday night when the Cowboys visit the Giants to open the season, league executive Ray Anderson told the 32 teams. Negotiations are at a standstill between the NFL and the officials' union,
The NFL Referees Association was locked out in early June and talks on a new collective bargaining agreement went nowhere. Replacements have been used throughout the preseason, with mixed results.
Calling it as the understatement of the year.

To be fair, they've gotten better as the preseason has progressed.

Hey guys!!! I care so much about player safety that I'm gonna put officials on the field who have no clue what the rules are or how to enforce them!! Arm tackle? 15 yards. Missle launch to QB head? I didn't see nuthin'
Goodell looks worse with each decision he makes
