I don't, for a second, denigrate the amount of work and study needed to be a good football official. ( I would argue that the baseball rule book is much more difficult to master, but that is another matter)
I think today's college and pro officials are the best the game has ever produced. I just wish the administrators would let the game be in the hands of the officials, not the TV cameras.
