Watching a mistake being made

We can't save everything. I am at enough games where mistakes are made. Let these guys make their mistakes. If it was a camp setting, then that is different. But during the regular season, unless they ask me, I am staying in the cut and doing nothing. Because even being an official sitting not waiting for a game, I have had coaches turn around and "Jeff, fix this" or "Was that the right call?" That is all I need to be seen as the guy that can come in and fix everything. I would not want anyone doing that to me so I am not going to do that to them.

Peace
