Ok, you want to ask the team if they are taking a knee....pretty stupid, you should be able to figure it out on your own. Same for telling the defense, they aren't stupid. But to tell the defense not to fire out basically means the game is over. You might as well just hold the ball up and walk off the field and stop wasting everyone's time.
I will put it this way. I will put his experience and respect of his fellow official at the high school and college ranks up against what you say any day. Do what works for you; we will do what works for us. Honestly who gives a damn at the end of the day what you do. I do not have to work with you.

Peace
