Is there such a thing as a LEGAL chop block? I've only been officiating football for 2 years, so I'm not sure if there's any chop blocks that are legal.
Yeah - we have a special rule for this league. A chop block is legal if the perpetrator's mother bakes me some muffins prior to the game, preferably lemon poppyseed with almonds.
Mark, you're slippin'.

Used to be all the mom had to do to get her kid some special privilege was wear a low cut tight fitting sweater, smile sweetly and enthusiastically cheer her team on while sitting in the front row.

Now she's gotta bring you muffins... it's a sad day. A sad, sad day indeed...
It's called "getting old".
