My polarized glasses sure cut the glare on the water while I am fishing though. I don't golf much so I can't help you. I wear my glasses for more than just umpiring.

Signal to the table for "being an idiot" is one hand in a vertical position while the other hand comes over the top in a horizontal position. Aren't most technical fouls for being an idiot?

It is pretty simple. The kid does it to draw attention to himself. There is your T. Makes it easier for the next set of officials too. Kid pulls the jersey out to show the school name, another simple...

You can whack still. Put it on the bench. He isn't a player yet. Still bench personnel. Unsporting could be an option. He is bringing the attention to himself.

It is the same as the two different face mask penalties. The rules committee separated clip and block in the back. They wanted the block in the back called more so they lessened that penalty.

As an official we are to enforce the rules. I believe, but not being Merriam Webster, so I could be wrong but mandatory means that it must be worn. The penalty for the coach sending out a player...

By rule that is borderline. Looks to me like it is more of a shot to the shoulder, which by rule is not a block in the back. It is not nearly as violent as some are saying. If we call a block based...

If it lands in the field of play and no one returns it. The ball is dead at that spot. Just like a punt.

My question is, when does a kicker become a kicker? It isn't because he is lined up to kick the ball. He becomes a kicker when he makes contact with the ball. He remains a kicker for a short period....

Sounds like a live ball foul to me. A live ball foul occurs during the down.

If we use that the coach doesn't know what is going on, we would have to eliminate many rules from the book. I don't think that is a valid reason for removing a rule. I know that I have had teams...

How is the fact that there are 12 guys on the field my problem? My job is to enforce the rules as they are written. The rule is pretty clear here. If I don't get to 12 before the snap, I have...

If the coach tells you he has twelve, you still have to count. If during the count the snap happens, then it is IP. Rules are rules, we are there to enforce them. Not change them as this play has...

You answered it already, those are dead ball fouls. A dead ball foul we do not allow the ball to become live.

Wouldn't we go into the fundamentals. No live-ball foul causes the ball to become dead.
