We are taking about refereeing, why all the hate, why all the criticism? It's because other forum members think they are above the law, above criticism. That they can not be wrong, or that others...

Dude, I wasn't born yesterday. The ball maybe dead but the clock is still running! Okay, if the clock is still running, I can still have a personal foul. For example: after a made bucket b4 grabs...

Although I'm really not trying to be a women's official, I try to keep up but you're right, I misread it. I wonder what was the rule before? I can't imagine they would go thru the process of adding...

I don't think a coach is going to push the envelope that hard when he's up by 25 and the game almost over. I also don't think an assigner is going to be that upset about the technical either because...

This is a classic waffle! Don't call a foul if the defenders fakes a foul/flops! That's a damn technical! You see the waffle here. Either it is or it isn't! There is no in between or at least as...

Yes, I think in NCAA-W you skip the warning and go with the T. In HS, play it by the book and quite looking for trouble. It sounds like for this game you become too emotional to what's occurring in...

NCAA Rule 8-6 Free Throw Lane

Is this a misprint in the new 2008 rules? If the first lane space has been moved back for everyone, then there really shouldn't be a 4th lane space. However, if nobody can occupy this space, then...

IMO, in terms of putting a bad mark on their record, yes! To the agree that they will actually get an official off of their game. I'm sure it's happened and I'm also sure it's rare. It happens...

Just talked to Honig's and they said the zipper on the left side is by design. This is the way the jacket is coming from the official NCAA manufacturer, whoever that is. Nothing they can do about...

Makes sense. Please understand, I don't have a dog in this fight. Being fair to both parties is what's at issue for me here. Penalizing the defense awarding a score when you can't be sure or that...

I meant right before the goal. Again, I am not an NFL or football official. It just seems like a stretch to award the TD when the player lost control of the FB trying to stick it over the plane. ...

Good point about the Pro's, but I think the media coverage that comes alone with the money has a tendency to ruin the athlete's prospective.

Is there any rule on the player having to have control of the ball at the time it reaches the goal line. IOW's, if you reach out and lose control that is still a TD?

I would not go as far as to...

Disagree, the ball should become dead on the double foul. Now, if the double foul occurred after the release, then you go POI, and continue on.
