...and again I agree that in time knowing and learning the rules will make the coach a better person in EF and I have learned that in time that situations will manifest and remanifest themselves in games time and time again, but that is when the understanding of the rules and integrity will make a major difference in how this game is percieved and enjoyed. I believe that a good conversation after the game is essential for it reestablishes the friendship after the competition. Places us back in the light of humble human beings and not competitors.fr$

I would like to add that because someone is reffing the game does not mean they know the rules.
I was signing up my son for Pee Wee football this past week. In the school was a banner.
HONESTY--- standing up for what is right, Even if you have to stand alone.
Protect the rules , act with respect for the game, KNOW the rules.
We all make mistakes, we all can see a rule in a different light. Communication about the rules before the league starts or the tournament begins is way more important to unity and equality than talking about what we could have done after it is all over.
Off to visit the guys in Phillly and their mid season eat fest.
