Nothing like being open to different ideas. Experience wins every time. So experienced officials never make bad calls. Experienced officials never get screened. Experienced officials NEVER call outside their primary because since they are perfect and their partners are perfect, they never have to worry about anyone missing a call - because no one does.

Seems like a pretty clear statement to me.
David,

Do not twist what I said. It is not about "new ideas." It is about what works and what has not changed because it works. You are not in a position to start changing things because you do not like the system. Neither am I or most of the people I listed in a position to do what we want to. But when someone tells you a procedure and they are much more experience, it shows a lot of ignorance on your part to say, "You have no idea what you are talking about." Well when you get on the NF committee or the CCA committee, then maybe you will have some credibility on this issue. The current system has worked in my 10 years when used properly and your ideas are not new. Your "new ideas" have been shown as not effective. I should have known better when you tell all of us what the NBA officials are doing wrong. I guess you have credibility to know.

Peace
