exactly!

Hoch is taking this WH to the next level of officiating, educating the millions who do not know the rules. An explanation goes very far. I understand what you guys are saying about "by rule" and maybe that is too much for us but not for folks who do not follow the game as closely as us.
Wouldn't it be better then to say, "By NFL rule..."

Uncatchable pass, outside of the tackle, reporting enelgible number, lineman left before the punt, that kind of stuff that make us look bad on a Friday night in front of the fans that Hock is educating.
The thing is, IMO: anybody with part of a brain should be smart enough to realize that the rulesets for a professional league and amateur level are going to be different. (It's just way-out-there for it not to be.) So watching the NFL for rules for Friday night is not a good idea. As for the NCAA, I dunno...
