Jr and Rich,

I would like to add to the primaries becoming blurred and tape that y'all talked about. When we have asked officials about these types of plays they can't agree upon WHERE the play started or the collision OCCURRED. They are flabbergasted when they see the play on tape. One, or both can be as far as 15 feet off in their guestimations. I think people do know their primaries, but instead of these plays being drawn up on a chalkboard, they happen at warp speed with focus on where defensive players are coming from and did the defensive player get there in time. The wonder is not that blarges occur, but that they don't occur more often than reported.

I'd also like to point out that most of the time these guys are very good officials.
