Solid points. A lot of stuff that are what I call discriminators. Officials who know how to properly apply these concepts rise above the crowd.

They forgot the first rule of officiating. :eek:

I'm assuming you're referring to the "Avoid OT like the plague" rule or is it the one that says we can't talk about certain things?

If there really is a God, new Forum members will not ask Mark Padgett what the first rule of officiating is.

You are 100% correct. Now move along. There's nothing more to see here folks.

That rule's important for me when I work football, but the lanyard is never that long in a basketball game.

Shouldn't it be titled Rules that use to be unwritten?

Go sans-lanyard and you can forget about rule 1:D

FYI for the newbies, avoiding OT at all costs is the 2nd rule.
