Thanks for taking the time to explain my points of interest. Not sure if I totally agree but I appreciate your clear explanations of your point of view. I am not a official and came to this board for some insight from people who do officiating on a regular basis. If my not being a official makes me unwelcome to this board I will refrain from posting anymore comments. Thanks again.

You are more than welcome to come back and discuss things. Just understand that we know the rules better than the regular public even if we do not work those levels. Many of us go to camps and know officials that work at these levels and we know what they go through. You are more than welcome to discuss any officiating issue, just understand that we are not going to just take your word for it without considering what we know. Many times the officials here disagree on what we should do because not all of us are taught the same things or have the same experience. Just understand that this is an "Official's Forum" so our point of view is not going to be as friendly to fans that accuse officials of being bias or purposely making the wrong call. The guys at the NFL or major college is not going to jeopardize thousands of dollars to make one call that will lose them that all what they worked years to accomplish. I am sure their salary with the leagues put their kids through school, pay for their mortgages and any expenses that life will bring.
Peace
