Spot on, Cecil! I'm not a fan of long-winded pre-games. However, if there's a trend in an area to misapply a rule (or to enforce it too stringently), a quick word about it in the pre-game can go a long way.
I got a good chuckle out of your tag line -- you're right, knowing the game doesn't mean knowing how to referee the game! Did you see the article on Officiating.com about Blatter wanting to give former players a free ticket to the highest levels of refereeing?
