ATX,
Can you reference this requirement? Can you show me one reference in any officiating book that states this is our mission?
When a kid falls out, it is very possible there are many reasons the kid fell out.
When Hank Gathers died on the floor, the family sued every doctor in sight. If there was a doctor at the game that was in the cheap seats and did not get to Hank in 2.1 seconds of him falling to the floor, they were sued.
Coach, you have no clue about officiating or responsibility of those that officiate. Your comments are the very reason why officials have little respect for many coaches. Now we are supposed to override the experience and ability of the people that are in attendance to do the very thing, but all we have to do is buy a striped shirt and that trumps medical training and licenses that states require to be a trainer at a sporting event. WOW!!!!!!
Thanks for confirming what I already know about coaches.
Peace
