Is that information really germane to this conversation?

You must did not read these comments.
And if you have not accomplished some things and you have openly talked about how you got your “first shot at.......” then you are open for criticism if you want to constantly call someone names for disagreeing with you. If you do not want people to call you out, then at the very least understand you do not know everything just because you share your opinion. I have always stated that this is my opinion based on what I see and based on the fact the officials were in decent position for at least one of the plays.

Actually some of the most back stabbing people in officiating are fellow officials. And I am not talking about what I read on this board. I can sit in the stands with them and have the very people that are in this profession, saying all kinds of negative things about officials because they are "sitting in the stands" instead of officiating. You have a fantasy world view about this if you like, but in my opinion I am at the very least saying the officials had a better view. I am not saying what should or should not be called without that as a consideration.
