And yeah, the refereeing the defense thing was a joke, lighten up guys :P

You need to ask the C personally why he called what he called. I just know when I see tape that official often call these plays incorrectly. Why is an individual thing. And often officials default to calling a block no matter what actually happens on the play.

If it is a block, what did the defender do wrong? I cannot think of anything that shows the defender was wrong in his movement.

Peace

Lost legal position and/or never had legal position to begin with.

Just like you (and others) and Jeff (and others) have different opinions seeing the same play, the C and L had different opinions. And, they only had once chance to watch it. It happens.

I've sat in meetings where official's supervisors have watched similar tapes and had diverging viewpoints.

As long as we know what to look for, we'll get more right. And, both sides have explained that they know what to look for.

There's no need to try to "win" this debate by convincing the other side. (directed generically)

He moved forward. Use the markings on the floor for reference.

When the 2 players were about 10' apart, the defender was about 3' above the top of the letters "ACC". When they were about 5' apart, one foot was near the "ACC", at the time of the collision, one foot was on the "ACC" and the other one still shuffling forward to try to match.

Block.
