Before I joined the Forum, 100% my officiating experiences came from a little corner of Connecticut (born, live, played, taught, coached, officiate, and will probably die here in Connecticut), and I was sure that our local "ways" were great, with some of my local colleagues claiming, the "best".
So what have I learned from the Forum after sixteen years that I didn't realize previously? Lots of stuff.
Most important? When in Rome do as one's Roman trainers, mentors, evaluators, and assigners want one to do.
Also, different isn't always better, or worse, it's just different.
