She got the job as an NFL ref!  That’s right, we said she.  For the first time in its history, the NFL will have a woman overseeing games.

According to the Baltimore Sun, Sarah Thomas will start officiating in 2015.  Thomas started working for Conference USA in 2007 and became the first woman to officiate a bowl game in 2009.  She then joined the NFL’s officiating development program, worked some New Orleans Saints’ training camps, and also officiated an NFL preseason game last August.

So what do you think?  Does a woman belong on a football field?
