Report: NFL and locked out refs meet
Week 3 of the NFL produced more suspect calls during several games, and it also produced a meeting between the league and the locked out officials' union.
Two people familiar with the talks said the sides met yesterday. It was uncertain whether progress was made in an attempt to reach a new collective-bargaining agreement, or when further negotiations would take place.
The NFL players' union sent an open letter to team owners calling for an end to the lockout of on-field officials and hinting it's a violation of the contract between the players and the league.
