The only time we are obligated to talk to you is the Referee and wing official on your side when you call a timeout and request a conference. Other than that it is not our job (you will not find it in the rulebook BTW) where does it says we have to talk to you? And if other things are going on, they may not have time to talk to you. Answering questions from you takes away from other responsibilities.

I do not even know what your point is here. If I recall this was not a high school game, this was a youth or recreational type of game. I do not understand all this hostility over a call where everyone is supposed to learn.
