What a joke!

What a hypocrite...

SoGARef, Snake~eyes, rdfox, chiefgil, PSU213, Simbio and ABoselli all took positions that suggest that is not the way to go.


Do you work with any of these guys? I didn't think so.
You dismissed the examples I gave, because you don't work with them and they agreed with me. If you read the others - even some that you mentioned - they have either been involved in plays that were overruled or don't think that they can or were handled properly. You have just shown all of us that you have a double standard.

By the way, I spoke with a pretty good referee last night. In addition to multiple baseball State Finals, he and his crew have worked the IHSA football playoffs for six straight years. When I asked him about overruling a partner, he asked if I had ever seen a referee wave off a flag thrown by a partner. I asked if this was just semantics and he said, that the way his crew handles it, if they get together and agree that the flag was bogus he will over rule it. But, since you don't work with him, he must be a bad official with bad mechanics.
