Beek, what problems/issues did you have with the officiating in this game?

You may need some hearing aids, man who has been on this Earth for a significant amount of time. In fact, you should consider my great idea and suggestion, what else is new?, because that will help you with what you held very dear in your heart, the honor and privilege of talking with me. You're welcome for the honor and privilege, and you have a friend in Volusia County.

Ray, I noticed that you were "confused" by my comments. There is no need for that as I am willing to explain anything that you would need explained. You have learned a lot from me and I have enjoyed providing you with many lessons. You have a friend in Volusia County.

Nothing is getting heated at all. I tried to be polite by asking a question of a poster who I know wouldn't be able to answer my basic, simple, question. I was right as usual, skyway provided about as much of an answer as he/she usually contributes to this message board. Absolutely nothing. Skyway has to resort to personal insults and foul language because of this simple fact.

I HAVE WATCHED A GOOD PART OF THE GAME ALREADY LITTLE BALLS!

When I have something to say to you, you will hear me just fine badbird. What is more than that, a good friend of yours just might hear from me soon if he tries any sort of intimidation factors. DO YOU UNDERSTAND AND HAVE I MADE MYSELF CLEAR?

Dan, the strip by the St. Frances player that caused the fumble was ruled incorrect by the side judge, (I noticed that this was a 7-man officiating crew.) who did not seem to have a good angle to make a ruling on the play. However, since the official's whistle was blown, that ends the play immediately. On the play that was ruled a touchdown by Venice, the runner did not have possession in the opponent's end zone when the ball was separated. Also, it has to be noted that the officials do not have the luxury of the slow-motion ESPN replay, but I believe that the ruling was still incorrect. I will view the whole game at a later time. If there are any other calls. rulings, or fouls that any other poster felt was incorrect, please let me know at the approximate time in the game. Thank you.

Thank you for the information 561_Fan.

Dan in Daytona has provided a video of the game, and I said that I would view it when I have time. I have other priorities that are more important than this message board. Besides that, I don't have to defend or explain anything to you or any other poster to this message board. The information that I provide and don't provide is my choice and I will NEVER answer to someone like you. DO YOU UNDERSTAND AND HAVE I MADE MYSELF CLEAR?

Thank you very much for the video Dan. I will view that when I have some more time.

BigBoyBall, I don't think that Educational Choice should be considered "dumb" just because you want closer high school football games. However, would you be willing to provide some examples of this "embarrassing officiating" which you have labeled it?

Most of my "buddies" don't view a lot High School games that are showcased on television early in the season. We are up to our necks already with the games, especially in the last several years.

561_Fan, what problems or issues did you have with the officiating?

Beek, I am very sorry to read what you are your team are having to put up with. I know for a fact that officiating numbers are a HUGE problem in your area, and I believe that it will only get worse.

I didn't see the game obviously, but I would enjoy reading what other posters who did view the game saw and objected to.

Usually, I expect and demand an answer when I ask a question. However, considering that the circumstances surrounding this so-called "terrible officiating" is not known, your non-answer makes perfect sense. Therefore, you are off the hook skyway, but don't get used to it.

If I watched the game, I might have been able to help. I didn't however.

What is your theory skyway?

I will also "find a way" to deal with the self-proclaimed "sexy beast" and his 25 sons when I am in the Western side of the county that I live in!

I didn't watch the game, but I am known for being honest, as most posters to this message board will admit. I have educated and informed many times on this message board, and you have learned from me. I always tell it like it is.

What problems or issues do you have with IMG REFS" cribboy305?

What else is new? In other words, the sky is blue, the grass is green, and it is humid in Florida.

With me you know that you will always get a solid, straight answer that you can take to the bank and exchange for cash! In fact, it is same to assume that most message board posters would agree with the quote "That Jambun82 knows what he is talking about" You're welcome for that Perspective.

You're welcome.

Perspective, the foul would be an Unsportsmanlike Conduct penalty, not a Personal Foul penalty. Obviously, every official has a different level of tolerance for an objection to a call by a coach or player. The NFHS rules states that a UNS Conduct foul by a non-player includes, but is not limited to, disrespectfully addressing or trying to influence a decision by an official. That is very broad, as you would already know in legalize terms. Certain Coaches reputation procedes them, and the language used by the coach has an effect obviously. Good Head Coaches will instruct their assistant coaches not to voice any objections or complaints to the officials, and a good sideline official will mention to the Head Coach in the pregame that he/she only wants to communicate with the Head Coach. I suppose that the situation comes down to the individual officials tolerance level, with good officials realizing and respecting that Coaches spend all week preparing for a emotional game where circumstances will come up where leeway should be given, and not everything is black and white. It is a fine balancing act.
