I do work with some ... in other sports as well, and frankly, they drive me crazy. From what you have said, you and I are probably a lot more alike in our officiating styles than you might have first thought. I'm there for the good of the game... and that requires a lot of interpretation, leeway (sp?) and common sense. Some calls are black and white. But a whole lot of them fall into that tricky area of grey where common sense and good rules applications apply.

I believe that we probably are very similar!
