Social media is destroying the NFL following a photo of inside their officiating command center popping up online.
NBC’s cameras gave fans an interior view of the league’s central officiating New York headquarters during their Sunday Night Football broadcast of the Giants-Bills fixture, showing the room in which all replay reviews are looked over.
Fans couldn’t believe their eyes as the setup looked just around average for one belonging to the most profitable league in America, with TVs, desks, and chairs scattered everywhere while everyone was dressed casually.
Of course, it’s probably no more than the NFL needs, but fans were expecting to see something better and roasted the league when an image surfaced online.

Are fans asking for too much? Maybe they are. To be fair, one would expect the place to look more organized. And, as one of the users pointed out above: at least have matching shirts.
There’s already so much controversy going on where officiating is concerned; exposing the HQ has probably lowered confidence in the NFL’s ability to make correct calls.
