Agree.

"Game interrupter" is still relevant, but not to any degree close to what it used to be. I hear it less and less at meetings as the years have progressed. I actually can't remember the last time I heard the phrase.

Inbounder steps slightly (fraction of an inch) over a boundary, twenty point game, three minutes to go in the game.

Twenty-five years ago? Easy pass. No thought required. Easy peasey lemon squeezy.

Today? Possibly a violation.

Don't need another complaint on a coach's list (grasping at straws) if he chooses to call my assigner.

The much increased use of video over the past many years had definitely required officials to be held more accountable than in past ancient times.
