    Bills using Arena League refs during practices

    Apparently the team isn't getting enough calls going against them during actual games, they've brought in ex-AFLeaguers to extend the misery during the week.


    If it can help focus them, then it's for the better. But the only thing I think it will do is pad Jennings's holding penalty totals for the week.

    Welcome and check out the front page (billszone.com), there was an article on this a couple days ago.

    As far as having Officials (retired or otherwise) on the field with us..... I think it's a good thing. I did think that they were retired NFL officials, but the first article I found did say arena.

            Maybe they need an Arena League opponent.
            I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

            I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                I think certain AFL teams would be insulted by the comparison They know how to put points on the board

                    This is great. I think the constant presence of a Ref and Possible Penlties might make them more catious in game. I do know one thing for sure the Penlties this season so far has crushed us at the worst possible times. I dont care how you look at it .... Its worth a try.... the pentlies have to stop...
