As for Brad's opinion, I think that it is very unprofessional of him to chastise others for diligently following the rules and not doing it his way.
Having a negative attitude towards officials who strive to do it by the book doesn't seem to have any positive benefits, especially at a time when John Adams is pushing for officiating to become more of a science than an art. I have to believe that Brad is someone who would be classified as one of the guys that Adams says, "call by feel" and are going to have to either change their ways or be phased out.

Phased out from what? Adams, last I heard, doesn't hire a single official in a single conference.
