>>Coaches are yelling at me for blocks in the back<<

Welcome to the world of football officiating.

The definition of "block in the back" is, according to many coaches, "a block that knocked my kid down that occured downfield some."

Its really as simple as that. Last Tuesday, I got yelled at for missed blocks in the back (that didn't occur), missed piling on (by a phantom offender), and being "intimidated" by the visiting school (laughable enough), even though the foul calls were ~14-1 in favor of home.
