As for publishing the official's name, I can say that if I were the official, I wouldn't really care.
They get printed at the NCAA level if its D-3. Why not the FED level if its a championship game?
ESPECIALLY, if I knew I got it right.
Mine was almost printed last year over a baseball rules incident. The reporter used the word "controversy" but then correctly wrote what happened and what was enforced. Anyone who cared to open a rule book knew I was right. A bit different with a judgment call, but who cares?
If you want to remain unbiased, you have to let all this slide off your shoulders. Who cares what anyone thought? You saw what you saw, you called what you called. IMO, being upset if your name is printed would be the first step to becoming a soft official.
That being said, I passed on an 83 footer at the buzzer last night who might have gotten brushed on a run by, but I didn't lose any sleep over it...
Anyone hear back for our principal friend? As a future educator, that stuff makes me even more pissed...
Get a response from the princiPAL yet?
