Feature Idea #1

It has been all over the news the past 3 weeks, the replacement referees in the NFL. These referees are working in place of the regular referees who are currently in a lockout with the NFL over a labor dispute. An interesting angle that a feature story could cover is how the replacement refs feel about the ridicule and hate they have received. These refs have really suffered a lot of hatred from social media as there has been pictures, posts, tweets and etc. that have made these people look like they have no clue what the real rules of football and some have even included threats. For this story you could interview some of these people who have had to go through this experience and how they plan on returning back to normal life now that their services are no longer needed by the NFL.

Overview

This blog is mainly for my JRN 3050 class to post ideas for feature story ideas. I'm new to the whole blog scene so I'll see how this goes. I might keep it up and turn it into a blog of sports and things that interest me.
