At first you didn't think it was one step, but after looking at it 10 times in slow motion you decided it was "more" like 2 steps and you came to the conclusion that the less experienced official, in a real live game, with a split second to make a call will blow the whistle and go with an illegal screen. So in essence your saying that the "experience" comes with watching plays 10+ times at slow motion? :rolleyes:

Many of us have a no-call, but if some of us did have a call or have to get a call(during live action) we probably can go either way and the debate in this thread just about says so. Unfortunately some of us less experienced officials don't have the luxury of looking at the call 10+ times in slow mo to come up with a call. In live action, this would probably would've been a tough call, and for you to assume that if one makes the I/S call he's less expereinced is asinine.

sick em JR sick em

I make a comment about being "lax" regarding the fashion police stuff and get a -- "rules are rules" lecture from JR (jurassic that is).

Sr. whats your secret to the free pass?

I'm quite sure that Mark knows and follows the appropriate rules. You? I'm <b>never</b> sure of that.:)

JR:

I let Daryl "The Preacher" Long to handle the sweatbands. :D

MTD, Sr.

Joe, don't bite my head, That is why I said after 10 times. If it were live action It would have gone any of three ways, no call, illegal screen or a charge. I made a joke of it as a less expereince official. That would be a tough call for anyone. especially at that level..

Is that because he's a man of the cloth?:)

Oh man, that's bad.

Good morning to you too, Scrappy Doo.

I never thouhgt of it that way before. Daryl hasn't read this thread lately, I will have to tell him to start reading it from the sweatbands on.
