Thanks, dumbref.
I'm in my 2nd year, and the biggest difference I've noticed in myself from last year is watching your area instead of the ball/QB.
It seemed my first several games on the field all I wanted to do was look at the ball. I also had "tunnel vision". After getting comfortable and working with some great officials, I now see the game completely differently.
Looking back on it, I can't imagine how many holds, blocks in the back, PI, etc. that I must have missed when I first started.
Edit: I also didn't think you were advocating dropping my flag on that situation.
