Billy, I am not twisting your words. Just stating that most people are not taking us that seriously. They are not doing things as if we are the only people that know the rules and they only take our lead. Coaches, fellow players and fans have influence over what they know about the rules in these situations. I have had situations where likely nothing was said and a coach thinks that a thrower that moved violated on a designated spot. And I do other sports like football that has many more misconceptions about basic rules than basketball and they argue all the time an NFL or NCAA rule or ruling that has no bearing on the level being officiated at the time. Sorry, we are not that damn important to their knowledge of the game.

Peace
