Tim, from your response above, it appears that you truly believe YOUR way is the best way. Let me tell you, as an evaluator if you don't show some flexibility, you will be tuned out more so than not. Here's a question. Is every player the same? Every coach? Hardly.

I can totally understand your desire to have every official that works to be on the same page, but that is simply not possible. We have different personalities, mannerisms and attitudes. In order to have every official do the exact same thing every time, you should order your association 100 robots and program them as you wish.

I'm not trying to be facetious here, just pointing out the facts.
