And finally, you could do an expose' of the dark side of officiating.....ref groupies (Title it : Women Love a Man in Uniform- Even One Made Out of Polyester).

dude, you're scaring me...LOL

Periodically (sp) through the show, you should flash either an email address or a mailing address (or both) where viewers can send in their questions regarding rules. If the show is live, flash a phone number and people can call in. You can then read their questions on the air the following week and answer the public's questions.

How about intentional grounding? (i.e., illegal forward pass). I must have heard, a half dozen times or more, from the stands... "Hey, he was out of the pocket!!" Also, heard that at least once from an Asst. coach.

I know we may have done links like this before but I need to see them again.
Tom, I am always looking to network with local officials, and this sounds like a great idea. Shoot me an email if you need any help with anything. I am right next door in PA.

Another obvious one I constantly hear. The defense jumps offsides, you throw the flag, then you hear from the sidelines "He got back"....again, not in HS he didnt.

Also, an uncatchable pass does not exist in HS football. Most fans do not know this.

Can't forget this comment...

"hey!! That pass was UNcatchable!!! "

I think this could be one of the best parts of your show. If you want to clear up misconceptions and stuff, what better way than to have people (who don't understand the rules) call or write in with their own misconceptions or crazy plays. This could also be a great time-filler.
