Heard on a radio talk show this morning that the NFL has a female official this year.
Any one have info about her?

Rumors were that either Sarah Thomas (C-USA) or Terri Valenti (conference, if any, unknown ) would get the call.

I have seen Mrs. Thomas on TV several times.  I think she has been in a bowl game or two.
Wasn't there a piece on her in Referree Magazine?

Wonder what the reception will be in the "Not for Long."
