Who's saying that I or anyone is saying the ref didn't know what he was saying? I know they know more than I do as far as the rules go. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't but it would have been just for clarification purposes just like how I confided and some other refs after my game. I just want a better understanding. This is not a hot dog swinging contest. In my example, it was tied w/ seconds left. The other team had 0 TOs but still called TO, it wasn't granted. The tech would have allowed us to hit or miss our FTs but we would have gotten the ball. Let the game end in the teams' hands not at the hands of the refs.
No one is saying coaches & players don't make mistakes. We've made plenty. Refs are trying their hardest. I know I couldn't do it. Not yet anyway. Missing FTs, not boxing out, horrible Defense, etc. The refs didn't lose the game for us. We should have executed better. Again, I'm only here to get clarification, not bash. I have friends that are refs.
