One that you can say “hey that's a foul, yep that was a foul, buy God now that was a foul “! And then toss your flag. If this is how your calling fouls then 95% of the time your going to have the offender’s #. Then you can report it with confidence.

Well unfortunately, facemasks are not that way 95% of the time in my view. Many are just people grabbing for deal life and someone grabs the mask. Unless you have a big run or a one on one tackle, getting a number can be hard for any official, not just the wings.
