Where did you go to camp to learn that?
Or......when asked about comments made earlier, they teach you to speak in gibberish so people will get tired of talking to you and drop it. It's starting to work here.

I have tried to have a reasonable discussion with you. I have tried to discuss this issue in a very professional manner. It appears that instead you want to try to insult me which suggest that you are not going to accept what I say on its face value. That is fine with me. I am not the one struggling to find my in officiating so I must be doing something right. I think you should attend a camp first because trying to suggest what I do not know or understand. I know who I am and what I am every time I step onto a court or field. I also realize the term “knowledge” is a hard thing to grasp for you. I guess when you work games every foul is a single event and fights happen out of the blue because you want to not have knowledge of previous events or possible future events. So when you T up a coach, you must be blindsided by why he went nuts on you. I guess you see that way of officiating honorable, but I just find it as if you are officiating with blinders on. Everything we have called is going to affect how we are perceived or how coaches and players will react to you or the opponent in the future. And do not think for a second that what coaches think do not change things in your career. You get enough of them that think you are clueless you will be on the outside looking in for a long time even if your supervisor thinks you have it together. Hey, what do I know?
It is clear that your experience is the reason you are unwilling to learn something new. I can see the experience of JR, because he simply rejects the premise and has a reason why. You try to go through smoke and mirrors and suggest I am not explaining the concept very well. Why is JR able to rejected what I am saying on the merits and you cannot? Then again, you have never attended a camp and now I see why that is. And one thing you learn when attending camp is that people will tell you things you do not agree with and it is really not that big of a deal. I realize that trying to make comparisons are hard for someone that has such a closed mind. I would rather you at the very least say you just reject the philosophy than always trying to twist the concept to something you do not understand. Just do what works for you; it does seem to be working very well.
Peace
