Game Control Question

[JasonTX]

We'd be there all night if we called what the fans perceived to be a foul. Bottom line is that the fans do not understand the rules. If they did, they'd be officials. Most acts that require disqualification require judgement. What a fan thinks is a disqualifying action may differ with the officials. If the administrator tries to tell me that we have to eject a certain player, I may be inclined to hand him my flag and tell him he start calling all the fouls.

If an administrator tells me that we have to eject a certain player, I may be inclined to eject the administrator.

John Wayne would have given her a come back to reality slap, a shot of whiskey to calm her nerves, then a big 'ol kiss as she slowly melts into his arms.

Whose name is on the check you're getting paid by?

If they told you right now that the football game is over, this is now a soccer game, would you stay on to officiate it?

I am missing your point. What do you mean whose name is on the check? Who is saying the game is over and who has jurisdiction to make that determination?

Peace

Maybe you'd care to elaborate on this.

Not hard to do with one of his posts lately. I hesitate to call it circular logic.

And when said school hires a plumber to fix the leaking sprinkler system, the administrator can tell him the job is done while wearing a raincoat in the office.
