Not at all....either he can back up his mouth with facts or he can't. Pretty much all the games are uploaded to YouTube, he says he's seen NUMEROUS examples, and he needs to verify he knows what the manual says about when the "chains are set". So, the question remains, can he back up his mouth or is he like you and merely talking out his arse?

i guess we will find out. my objection to the other poster was that he seemed to think that the guy should instantly have these instances at his disposal. on this same note, what do you have to back up that you are an actual official and not some guy talking out of his arse? what league do you officiate for, where, etc..? i think its a fair question to you, since you are apply the 'appeal to authority' fallacy to yourself (an actual logical fallacy). its only fair that the basis for your authority in this matter be verified.

Let's start with knowledge of the rules and mechanics and see if helps satisfy your questions about my competence:
You stated, earlier in the thread, that feigning an injury (flopping) is within the current rules of the game. Would you say feigning an injury to stop the clock meets the criteria of an unfair act?
