And not listen to what you're being told.

I asked a question. Just wanted to know if those were or weren't the NFHS official signals?

Sheesh!

Your attempt to show us how much you know about baseball was once again trumped by your total lack of knowledge.

If you really understood anything about officiating, (name the sport) you'd know that the states do not adhere 100% to the FED manual.

Ohio's "Gold Book" for football is a perfect example of this.

Sometimes a question is just a question. However, sir, your reputation precedes you, and you don't ask questions that are just questions - you are always going somewhere with them, and where you go is not conducive to helping anyone learn how to do this job. I'm sorry if you don't like that... but you made this bed, and now you must lie in it. You cannot be offended if your previous actions color the way your future "questions" are taken.

  • The signals in the back of the FED rule book are in fact, official FED signals.
  • The fact is most States do not use the official FED signals or the Official FED mechanics. These States use the CCA or modified CCA mechanics which use standard OBR - NCAA signals.

In fact, Missouri allows each organization to pick their mechanics. Mine uses the PBUC Red Book.
