Well it is not. So get over it and stop trying to put your spin one what it should be called and accept that intent has nothing to do with the actual definition of the foul.

You decided to be a cop. We decided to be officials. And being an official for most is not a job, it is a hobby at best. Most of us do something else outside of officiating. The point that JR makes is that you do not have many people while your are doing your job, telling you suck and questioning absolutely every decision you make. Of course their are people that are not fond of cops, I am one of them. But if I acted the same way towards a cop as you are towards us, I might be in jail.

BTW, I really wish you guys were paid more... The ACC officiating is at the bottom of NCAA officiating... I mean the best confrence in football and basketball for next year (quite possible) may have the worst officials. I hope you guys get a raise so you can do it full time and not have to have any other jobs.
So they can make less money than they do now? Not sure I would want that.

Peace
