Those reasons are not enough to be an expert on officiating and what officials are looking for Longtime Observer. To quote Jim Mora when he was the Head Coach of the New Orleans Saints to reporters questioning the team's strategies and play calls: "You don't know what we are trying to achieve and are looking for. You may think that you know, but you don't know and YOU NEVER WILL!"

On what experience or qualification do you base this rant on. Longtime Observer?

ExplereHomer2, that is an extreme view, and I cannot agree with all of your observations. However, when a poster criticizes officiating or officials on this message board, that poster will answer to me. I will put anybody in their place when it comes to officiating on this message board, you can take that to the bank and exchange it for cash.

Now, if we can get just get High School Coaches to learn and recite this expression and language............

Cribboy305, you and I both know what a great honor and privilege that is for you to be able to speak with me. If you want to continue with this great honor and privilege of yours, you will be expected and demanded to answer my questions and provide me examples when I ask for them. You and I also know that you can learn a lot from me, and it behooves you to admit that I am absolutely correct, which deep down you know as well.

I act the way that I need and want to act in any situation that I see fit.

You and I agree on something, Perspective. Congratulations. Please stay safe and get through this storm.

The philosophy of officiating is not always consistent between Pro, College, and High School Football.

Cribboy305, when you make accusations about officiating on the message board, you will be challenged by me, and you are strongly urged to provide answers to my questions. The onus will be on you to provide examples and videos, and I will expect nothing less. You are NOT qualified to critique and rate officials and officiating, because I am telling you that you are not qualified. Now, if you do take the steps to become an official, which I strongly urge you to consider and follow-through with, that may change.

That is an accurate observation.

If the penalty was a Personal Foul, then the touchdown can be nullified because that can be a live-ball foul. If the penalty was a non-contact Unsportsmanlike Conduct foul and the touchdown was nullified, then the penalty was enforced incorrectly.

First of all cribboy305, when I ask or tell you for examples when you bad mouth the officiating, you are expected or even demanded to provide them so let us set that straight and have you understand that right away. Secondly, that video was not complete enough to make definitive opinions, so don't use that kind of language because you are not qualified to critique or rate the officials. That being said, are you going to inquire about becoming an official, or was the just big-mouth blabbering from you?

An Unsportsmanlike Conduct foul does not end a scoring play, either touchdown, field goal, or successful try. An Unsportsmanlike Conduct foul is always penalized as a dead-ball foul, so the offended team has the choice to take the penalty on the try (if a touchdown was scored) or the subsequent free-kick (kickoff).

If it was a video or a link that you posted, it seemed to have disappeared.

Cribboy305, in the Instagram video, on the interception return for the touchdown, I am not sure what the penalty was, but it looked like #24 might have had hands to the face of the Vero Beach player. On the final play in the video, it looked like there was an illegal formation foul by the signal of the Referee, but the video starts when the ball has already been snapped, so there is no way to tell what happened to make that become a penalty. The punt return touchdown with the block in the back foul looked questionable to me. The X video was completely worthless.

I have "tapped" many times before, Nulli Secundus.

No cribboy305, when I ask a question, I expect and demand it to be answered. If you make accusations against officials on the message board, I will be asking questions.

Perspective, I already informed the message board about my situation.

That is reasonable.

My Father has been dead for 12 years, and I never had much of a relationship with him anyway. I take care of my mother and grandmother, who are both handicapped Senior Citizens.

I am not demanding that you answer my question. I already know the answer to my question anyway, and if you are honest with yourself, you do as well.

I ask posters what problems that he/she might have with the officiating when I see posts such as "the officiating sucked" "home cooking" and other garbage that I read from uninformed posters who think that they know anything about officiating when most posters know nothing about what an officials role is, and what they are looking for. I try to help out and correct when I can, but it has become obvious that most posters to this message board don't want to read or hear what I have to say, even though I am the most qualified person to talk about anything regarding officiating on this message board by far.

Thank you for the nice compliment!

Why don't you just answer my question: WHAT MAKES YOU QUALIFIED TO CRITIQUE AND RATE THE OFFICIATING, EXPLORERHOMER2?

You are not my superior, but I take the second part of your statement to be a great compliment coming from you. Thank you for making my day!
