Have you ever totally watched one of his games, have you watched it form beginning to end.

He is a awesome official, he is great.

I think he calls teh game from a players opinion not form a coaches POV.

And that is why he is not like by many coaches.
I have watched Ted many times as he officiates in the two conferences I watch the most (ACC & Big Ten +1). I will agree that he is one of the best in the business (he certainly has the resume to prove it). In my opinion, he seems to draw attention to himself more than is necessary. Ted's body language presents a different image than what was described in jimgolf & LTG's posts.
