Let's also be clear that just because an official owns a rule book, doesn't mean they understand what is in it. We have all worked with guys who have been around long enough that they "know" the game, and don't need the book. And there are also those officials who can't quite conprehend what the rule book says. The book only gives you the rules, it doesn't go out on the floor with you and help you apply them. So with that, we should allow Old School to say he's a "real official" but all hope that none of us ever has to work with him.

You almost had a real good post here. If you could take out the personal attacks, which BTW, is what we are supposed to do as officials, that is not take sides, being neutral. You guys have shown that you don't have what it takes internally to be a true official. On the outside you are fine, but on the inside, you lack what it takes. Your persistence to want to put me down, make me look bad in the eyes of others, the propaganda, is well beyond the art of officiating. IMHO, good officials, true officials do not engage in such personal attacks on each other.
