Ball is marked where it went out of bounds.
Rock, you asked to be corrected if wrong on the call. Two fellow officials and myself suggested what we consider the 'right' answer to be to mark the ball where it went out of bounds, not at the forward progress spot.
So, I guess you have three choices: 1)agree with us, 2) disagree with us and check out the correct ruling in the rule book (I know you don't have one, but that's the place to go to settle the disagreement), 3)ignore us and continue to call it according to your opinion. If you choose # 3, why even post if you don't value others opinions?
Seriously, if you want me to drag out my book and look it up, I would be happy to do that for you. Just let me know.

Doc Moore, I can really identify with the "Friday afternoon haze" when all you think about is the night's games. And as much as I love youth football for kids' pure motivation, Friday nights are the "show". The smell of the grass, the lights, the band playing, the Star Bangled Banner! Heck, I can't wait for the fall.....
