In the Mood 2

[James Neil]

11. Don't blow your whistle unless you see the ball.
12. Putting the hand on the face mask is not a foul. It must be grasped.
13. If you are in doubt, don't throw the flag or blow the whistle.
14. If a man is in motion and the quarterback is stepping back at the snap, this puts no one at a disadvantage.
15. Don't be picky or over-technical.
16. No fan ever paid to see an official officiate.
17. Know the rule book so you know the game - not so you can be over technical.
18. Let the play kill itself!
19. Concentration is knowing your responsibilities and mentally reviewing them before each down.
20. Don't call it unless you can hang your hat on it.
