I guess since opinions are like "noses" or other body parts, I'll jump into this. I am by no means the official that I want to be, but then again I'm not the teacher I want to be or the man I want to be. I think we are always a work in progress as far as anything we do. This is why I'm on the forum. I see the form as a public place to vent, discuss, and learn about the game we officiate. The good thing about everyone that posts here is that they must be trying to improve, or else they wouldn't be here. I'm sure I've made rules posts and game situation posts that may have been incorrect or not the best for game management at the time, but that is why we post. So we can learn from these mistakes and not make them again. To me, this is the most valuable aspect of the forum. There is not substitute for experience, but talking through situations on the board and in person with other officials will make us better as a group.
