Mr Neil,
"I didn't know this forum was reserved for those who wish to teach others the rules".
It's not and I never said it was
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
I initially sought out this forum because I had a situation occur in a game and I wasn't certain on the correct ruling.
In just one game ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
"Before posting in this forum, I thought I had a thorough understanding of the rules".
"Honestly, I still do believe I have a thorough understanding of the rules"
Which is it Derock?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
The reason why I need to study is apparent from my posts--to build creditibility and respect amongst other officials.
Derock, you could know the book by heart and never gain creditability and respect. And in the same vain, know nothing of the rules and have tons of it. I know you think you have enough game sense and savvy to do games without knowing the rules but why not study them so you know how to apply the rules and manage the game the way it should be? (You are so lacking in your rules knowledge, I can just imagine you mechanics)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
"I maintain that I know enough about the rules to officiate in any game under NFHS rules"
Not in any Oregon High School you don't
