I don't have as big of a problem with 7 man crews as much as I do with patchwork crews calling the finals. ( putting together crews that have not called a single game together all year)

 

Completely false!

Well, how do you explain when region 1 sends an official, or 2, to call a state championship game, he's not calling with his normal crew, and I assume, all regions do the same.

Ok, I found out from my source that I was incorrect, that the championship crew will have also called round 4, semi's together, so I stand corrected. HOWEVER, it still doesn't change MY MIND, that it's a patchwork crew. Calling together all year makes for a better crew in my opinion. I guess some would say it's like an ALLSTAR team so they should be really good, but I believe when you call all year together you know your strengths, you know how to work TOGETHER, I think that maybe, just maybe, sometimes certain officials don't blend well and this leads to a bad called game. There are weak officials in all regions but at least round these parts there are a couple reall good crews, I have to believe it's the same across the state. Calling 2games together is not enough to build that well oiled machine.

Git' back coaches better be on their game.

It means more whistle blowers and flag throwers and nobody is going home happy (even if you win!)

Hopefully nobody bumps into one of the added officials on the sidelines

Love when people are incorrect and then still try to justify their original position Also this still not an accurate picture but don’t let facts get in the way of your opinion.

Don't care how you feel about it, I said I stand corrected on the fact they have not called together. My original position was wrong, but please paint for me the accurate picture, is it true or not that the crew will only have 1 previous game together?

LOL! I'm thankful in retrospect for that call, crowd went nuts!

See post 16

Post 16 explains nothing, if your going to accuse people of posting incorrect information at least back up your assertions, I've admitted being wrong on original post, and tried to get correct info from an official, I posted his info in post 20 and you state I'm still incorrect. So enlighten me, don't just throw out accusations and not back them up, if I'm incorrect, I'll admit it.

Or at least crews from the same officials association that have potentially worked with the crew a few times previously.

You sure about this? In the past, guys doing the State Championship games, didnt call games in state semis round. This could be a new change.

No, absolutely not sure, I was given this info from a local official. My point, that atm10 is debating, is that officials that call state championship games are not crews that have not called together as a team all year, matters not to me if they called semi's together or not, IN MY Opinion, they should take the best CREWS, and put them in championship games.
