great, great thread- invaluable to us newer guys. i'm in my third year, and have come to know where my "line" is. my first year i was too scared to call a T, and vividly remember a couple of situations where the coach was so out of line that anybody would have called a t. in retrospect, i wish i would have t'd them up, and, i also wish that after the game my partners had given me some insight...in addition to what i asked them.
i will referee anytime for any level, because i want to improve, but i won't do city league games. i did a few, and found that they were so crazy it was actually making me regress as an official. i would much rather do 5th graders. actually, i think the 5th graders are more mature than the ex-jocks who are playing to re-attain their glory days.
