Re: Call Inconsistencies Between Regionals

Okay, this is starting to get ridiculous. How many threads do we need to say the same thing? THE REFS ARE FLAWED, I THINK WE'VE MADE THAT POINT. IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO FIX IT, SUCK IT UP AND MOVE ON.
Constantly whining about it won't get you anywhere. So far this thread has contained exactly two suggestions to actually try and improve the situation. Two pages, twenty-three different posters, two suggestions. And you wonder why this issue comes up every year...
If you want to resolve the issue you have to be progressive, work towards a solution, not continually bash the refs and whine about rulings. How many of you have been refs before? How many of you took the online training course? I'd be interested in hearing what that course contained and what we could do to further increase its effectiveness.
Perhaps we could increase the amount of time Refs spent on the field during Thursdays, and emphasize to the student's this is a time to work with the rules and the refs to explore how they will call the game.
Does anyone else have any suggestions, or are we going to go back to flaming the refs?
