Not only is HL hard to learn and master, it is TOO MUCH LIKE WORK! LOL. I did my first HL of the year last Friday night. Did well, but it was a workout. Give me U anytime!

Thanks for your insights. I guess I shall count my blessings that Georgia thinks enough of football that the state association sets the fees, and they set them quite well, relatively...

Standard of Living??

Random thoughts here.

What does the standard of living have to do with officiating fees? Just curious. It seems to me that it is the same game, played by the same types of people. We can all...

1. The ball was not thrown "directly" to the ground. It was thrown to the lineman's leg.

2. You are correct. The referee should start the clock on the ready.

Ain't life (and football) grand!

While I would consider myself as much a coach as an official, I would NEVER tell the holder to back up two yards to protect MYSELF. And there is a BIG difference between 5 yards and 6 1/2 yards. ...

Ed,

I think you got it right. BktBallRef's reference 9.4.4 is the basis.

BktballRef,

You have hit upon what I believe was our mistake. The center's shoulders were facing his sideline. He was 90 degrees away from a normal lineman's position. His snap was from such...

This in fact is a violation of rule 7-3-3, because the handing contains both tenets of 2-19-1 -> transfer of player possession, and ball in contact with two players. Player possession was probably...

Re: Re: Re: Pregame Coaches Conference

Re: Very simple

I have to disagree. Football is a game of skill, and the reward is to those who accomplish with skill the things that they attempt. It does not reward the mere attempt in and of itself.

Two thoughts:

1. Most "shotgun" formations I have seen in H.S. have the QB only 5 yards back. A formation of this type would NOT afford the center protection under this rule.

2. I have had...
