thanks for the support. but i fear you have chosen the mark of death by following me into the lions den. as has been stated in previous post that higher level officials use this philosophy. i am not try to scorn anyone for not using this philosophy, or demand that it must be used by anyone. i am just trying to give my opinion on the play as i would call it.
I may be marked for death, but I will be in good company.
it seems we would be able to talk on the same level.

mark d.,
no one is trying to pry you away from your method of officiating, we are offering options to those who have difficulty deciding how to call this play. do not take my word for it, for several other highly capable refs use this same philosophy(i.e. eli roe, bbarnaky, drake m.,) these are all 3 d1 officials that agree with this method of officiating. if reffing highschool ball is your highest ambition then just ignore what we post, but if you have ambitions to ref at the college level then you may want to adopt this philosophy, though you dont have to. on this play the road splits you decide(you alone) which way to travel.

p.s. also notice how these higher level officials never accuse any ony of having a poor grasp of the rules. it is called professionalism.
