Too much visbility to who the refs are, too easy to access sports betting, and probably easy enough for a ref to hide it if they wanted to.
Too much money involved for me to just think that it's not happening even once.

Yeah its very fishy. Also NHL and NBA refs can influence a game a lot more than say a NFL ref.
With all the gambling, and NBA refs and players getting caught, and in some other instances of betting going on its hard to trust.
What do you expect when all the leagues are so deep into gambling, gambling ads now. Everything is a bet now. 10 dollars on who wins the opening faceoff.
