As others have stated, officials make mistakes and when we do we feel worse about it than anybody. We strive to be perfect and are expected to be, but we are human and we understand it's not possible. The reason I am quoting your statement above on the late hits etc. is things like that happen and we hope to catch them but the fact is the injury caused by the late hits are still going to happen whether we throw a flag or not. A lot of people feel as if the flag is a protective barrier. The only thing that we hope happens is that it will deter that from happening again. We appreciate your posts and come back anytime you have something to ask. Just keep it clean and professional and you will find we are the same.
