And do you ask every time we have a false start or other dead ball fouls?

Not if there's no option.

Also saying something is "blatantly obvious" is very subjective, it always will be by definition.

Then you should ask on EVERY foul where there's an option, shouldn't you?

Just admit you misspoke & let's move on.

I do not ask on fouls where there is an option and the option is obvious.

PLAY:A 1/10, A20. Run by A goes to the A33 yard line. Holding foul by A66 at the A22. You actually get a captain and present the options on that?

I actually know officials that feel you should. So I would not be surprised if he is in that camp. And you know what, if that works for him I would not have a problem with it, even if I was working with him. Again, not a big deal if you ask me. If that makes him sleep at night, then so be it.

Peace

I think it hurts the crew, myself. Giving an option on something like that, IMO, shows that the referee (and by extension the crew) has no common sense and/or feel for the game.

Far different than the play in the OP. I'm just trying to figure out where the line is with him, is all. I know where yours is -- I disagree with it, but so what?

Simple -- I don't ask on obvious choices. If there's any question, as in the OP, I ask.

No, and you quoted out of context.

Rut's contention was: "Also saying something is 'blatantly obvious' is very subjective, it always will be by definition."

If it is indeed "very subjective" (which I disagree with), then you should present options on every choice, which I also disagree with.

Well considering that you and I do not agree on this situation and your quote of the rule caused an issue with someone else, these things are clearly are not seen in the same light. So I stand by my contention that this is very subjective and changes based on who is involved or is looking at the circumstances. If it was objective, then there would not be at all a debate.

The mere fact that there are plays (including this one) where one quality official finds it obvious, and another quality official doesn't, makes this, by definition, VERY SUBJECTIVE.
