Come on out and join us then Ryan if they were that atrocious. All crews make mistakes, they're human.
That one was a simple miscommunication, since the chain crew and moved the chain clip moved during all of that chaos, no one could get the original spot. And in the midst of all that chaos, no one can recall the play before that. The penalty was assessed from the spot of the foul to begin with, which was wrong. It's dead ball, then proceeding spot on the sequence of fouls called. It genuinely humors me that we HAVE to be life and death perfect under every circumstance. That crew called a pretty good ball game outside of that sequence.
  Fact of the matter is, it affected the outcome of the game absolutely zero, Richlands still couldn't score. No one likes us, we get it, but it's comments like those that it glaringly obvious why we have a hard time retaining and recruiting officials. Both calls were there, the assessment got jumbled. To this day, no one has ever officiated a perfect game. 

The Midway Mussels. Done and done.

Go ahead and call "the idiots of the tunnel" what they really are: Ohio drivers lol

Since it was also BBQ night at the Cove I had them substitute chili with BBQ instead on my Eagles Nest. Good stuff. 

Two words: Eagles Nest. Thank me later.

Only a fool goes in Cuz's and orders the BBQ. Show me anywhere else you can get a 32 oz Prime Rib dinner for $40. To each their own I suppose. We go at least once a month and it's till as good aas ever. They do say your taste buds change as you age though so that might be the issue.😆

It's easy to break down film and find all kinds of penalties and non calls...the refs don't have that luxury, they have to make the call in live motion...and they are human

THAT would be a good game!

It won’t ever not be funny. 

Who? 281-330-8004

Just play Hurley for a 3rd time in the Food City parking lot.

This is correct. Contract dispute from credible sources. Grundy is open Sept. 3 and Sept. 10.

Belfry has had a few transfers here and there but, I suspect the lack of "traveling" numbers could be attributed to risk mitigation.  Why bring 25-30 more kids that won't play but a couple of snaps, when all of those have just as good of a chance as every other player at contracting Covid and shutting your program down for 10 days this close to the season. I've been wrong before, but numbers have not been an issue on Pond Creek in a very, very long time. 

Honestly, it takes a very special interpersonal skillset to do the job. Are we underpaid in comparison with the rest of the state and surrounding states? Yes, however I average $25-30 an hour when I'm on field. That is not bad money no matter what you're doing, especially if it is something you enjoy. Travel? Pfft, unless it is to Ewing or Galax, it's a walk in the park. The abuse, mehh. I do not pay one iota of attention to any spectators comment. I do it because of the relationships I've made, the opportunity to always be improving at the craft and my people skills, and giving back to sports that I owe so much to for making me the person I am today off the field. I truly enjoy being around the game, the student athletes we serve, and the coaches. I get that it is not for everyone, but there sure seem to be some rules aficionados during the season on this board so I thought I'd place my help wanted plug here  😂

Mad props to you and your experience. It doesn't hurt to be "centrally" located in this region in regards to travel, however, I totally understand your point. I too, also volunteer A TON of my time to junior golf in this area ironically. I can attest you do get the same gratification from that. 
Let me play devils advocate if you will, suppose there are not enough officials to cover all of the games on a Friday night, and we do have to run 4 man crews at some sites. How do you think folks would react to seeing who got 4 vs 5? The idea of "rotating" schools that got 4 instead of 5 one week would not work. I can tell you where the 5's will be assigned more than likely. Or would you rather play your game at 10 am on a Saturday to have 5? Or should we just do away with officiating as a whole and let coaches do it? As you can see the simplest answer is to add more officials to your pool, because if you do not, it opens a whole pandora's box of possibilities.

This ^. 

If Bluefield College ever turned out 250 to one of their games, it'd would be a team record. I've done some of their games and swear I've counted no more than 80 at any of them.
