BTW, I have seen the referenced and I have attended the meetings as well. I do not need a link to something I have already seen.

Game management crap??? Hmmm I tend to think it's a very important part of my officiating duties on the floor. Hard fouls can lead to games getting out of hand. At least where I work. It's called retaliation and it's a very common thing.
So like I've said countless times this hard foul needs a whistle not only because it's a foul, but to control the game. That's game management in my book and "crap" in yours I guess.
As far as the link goes we all know you are the Grand Poo-bah of officiating. It was for others who may not have seen it.
