The reason I reposted was that I was getting answers to the rule and not the situation. I know the rule and didn't need it rehashed or answered for me. I wanted your thoughts on that particular situation. It was kinda of a what do you think about this. Instead I got answers in the vein of I was attacking refs, I wasn't, I was just wanting to know your feelings about it. geesh.
I know I am going to get crucified for saying this but I just seem to not be able to keep my mouth shut. From my short time on this board, it appears to me that not all, but some of you refs have a real chip on your shoulder towards anyone who isn't one. I asked a seeminly innocent question and I get answers like, "geesh, what do you expect from us" " give us the names of those refs and we will deal with it" Can't you answer a question without APPEARING to be hostile??
I've gotten a few real good answers from what appears to be level headed good kind hearted refs, but I find myself not wanting to post afraid that I will get nailed for asking a stupid question or one that rubs some refs the wrong way. Oh well.

My feeble attempt at sarcasm failed. I need lessons from Mr. Padgett or should I say Captain Padgett.
Truly no hostility was intended, but I thought the question a bit inane. There is no good answer as others have said. This is a judgement call. And judgement calls depend on the moment. To debate why one ref calls something and another does not: that answer that can be definitively given. All we can say is that most associations and chapters do strive for consistentcy among refs - maybe where you live they don't do such a good job.
