A very wise artist once said, if you don't know me by now (after 400+ posts), you will never never never know me. I would be impressed if you knew off the top who sang that.

So the true ?? is, do you believe I'm an official? The answer is entirely up to you. Do I believe you are a real official? It doesn't matter to me. I will respect you as long as you are respectful of me. However, once you crossed that proverbial line, there is no going back.
Unfortunately, the question isn't as dumb as the answer.

You have, by so obviously avoiding answering a simple, direct question, actually showed your lack of respect for me. You want me to stop BS'ing you, however, that is all you to to any of us that ask you direct questions.

I now have no doubt you have outright lied when you answered my question about what levels you have officiated. I now have no doubt JR is absolutely correct when he says you do not have, or have even seen, an NFHS rule book. Many actual officials can see through the facade, even inexperienced ones. Most of us that post on this forum try to help our avocation by teaching others less experienced than us. I still learn things from people more experienced than me. But we will continue to point out your obvious mis-statements and bad advice. You certainly have a right to your opinion. Likewise, we have a right to ours. If you don't like it, feel free to go elsewhere.

Btw, who the hell cares if I know about Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes?
