How Appropriate: Ref who blew Seahawks call is a Bank of America VP

Bankers have come in for a beating of late, much of it earned, but this is going a bit far.

Turns out that the replacement referee most responsible for that disastrously blown call in the Seattle Seahawks-Green Bay Packers game Monday is a vice president of Bank of America in California.

Lance Easley, who signaled the touchdown that wasn’t, has been with BofA since June 2011. According to his LinkedIn profile – confirmed by a BofA spokesman who said nothing further – he handles “personal business banking services, credit facilities and commercial lending to businesses $250,000 to $5 million in gross revenue” out of a BofA office in Santa Barbara County.

Before that he was a business banking specialist with Wells Fargo for three years, “marketing business banking products to the San Luis Obispo business community.”

Gotta let them have their little victories, since their team has never won a championship of any kind.
