Physical fitness is a peeve of mine, but it doesn't have anything to do with getting this call wrong. Unless, of course, we are stereotyping overweight officials as officials who most often incorrectly wave off continuous motion. ;)

*Sigh*

The physical fitness of the official in the video has nothing to do with the thread or play at hand.

Tell me how it's remotely relevant to the clip and we'll see.

The spot which he obtains on the floor impacts his angle of view on the play.

His fitness does not look good, but not sure what the video shows in this play about anyone's fitness. I do not see anything but an official pointing at the floor emphatically, which is very wrong. Then again maybe that is acceptable in his area too.

Peace

Which you can't discern from the clip above.

True. Was just poking the bear.

Its not a mechanic and should not be used. Just wave off the shot, be emphatic if necessary. This official was wrong on many levels.

Too bad too, his fitness kept him from seeing this play correctly

The only time I point to a spot on the floor is when there is a foul I hold on to see what develops. I may point to the location where the foul actually occurred if it may make a difference in the penalty (throwin spot or shots).
