Quote from Veteran Official that's seen the most A-11 Games in the Nation

I wouldn't think answering a direct question, would qualify as a (uncalled for)personal attack, but then again, that's only my opinion and I've never suggested my opinions are always right. Just goes to show, knowing the rules doesn't mean you will always execute them properly.

One of the things veteran officials learn is when to keep quiet. Maybe, that is why they are veteran officials.

I asked myself how many times have coaches questioned my judgement which is a personal attack such as "how can you see that?"

Now I could escalate that into something resembling insanity by making some personal remark or I could simply walk away and not justify the remark.

I ask any official on this forum what is the right thing to do?

Well, pretend this forum is the football field.
