My apologies to JR and HHH - I was wrong about the FED part but correct on the NCAA and OBR. I do not work games played under FED rules so I should have not spoke in reference that. However, I do agree that if asked, at any level, you should extend the courtesy. That's just my opinion.

I never debated the different codes. So from my point of view this was not about the rules difference, just a philosophy. I adhere to the rules that I am under. I do not work OBR and do not try to speak for that level. I think we all need to realize that we all do not work under the same codes.

And the reason I take that position at the FED level, is because most of the appeal requests are very bogus. Coaches do not influence that. I did not realize that it was a real issue. I always ask for appeals when I see it necessary (pulled foot, checked swings, dropped balls). I guess that is what I get for assuming.

Peace
