Ding Dong the Witch is Dead, the Witch is Dead!
 
I am going to hate myself in the morning but I couldn't resist:

I am a very very bad boy.

That gets a WOW!

Yawn.

Mark,

Why are you happy about this development? I get that people in her position may not be loved, but what difference does it make if she is not in this position or someone else is in this position?

Peace

Yeah, I don't really get your (perceived...at least on my part) animosity that you have. :confused:

I'm only surprised it took so long for someone to post it.

Someone needs to explain why this is something to be happy or sad about either way. I did not see anything in her career with the NF that was so influential at least from the officiating side.

Peace

I suspect he's referring to the several poorly worded and/or off the wall interpretations and rule changes (including editorials) that have come about under her tenure as editor.

And I do get that, but this is a problem in other sports too. We have an interpreter in football that constantly says, "It takes the NF 3 years to get a rule right when they change it." Not sure she is alone in that criticism and I am not sure that would change if she is replaced.

Peace

She may have just decided that she has done enough in that position. Maybe she has made some choices that involve her family that will give her less time than the position dictates. I just wish her well and wish that they would stop tiptoeing in the tulips and declare compression sleeves legal or illegal.:D
