re: Former female NFL ref who was fired for bad performance sues league for discrimination

The fact no ref has ever been fired for performance besides her.
assigners at every level dilligently try to send the best crews out there. If ya'll ever had the opportunity to sit in or read a crew or official's review/grading of a game ya'll would be amazed at how many little things go into it. Look at the this way on a pass play if all the o linemen just stood up and watched the pass it would be a disaster...... same for officials.
Most of y'all also have absolutely NO clue how fast the game is now adays - at field level and up close and personal.
Should a player be fired for running the wrong route, dropping a pass, missing a block, a stupid costly penalty.... NO....
3 NFL coaches I have talked to have a very different opine of Vinovich than most of you on this board.

There is no such thing as a "head ref," but I digress
you may want to check with the nfl
LINK
Position
Offensive backfield, right side of the formation, 15 yards deep and behind the normal Tight End position

Wears the white cap, known as the crew chief and leader of the officiating crew
Oversees everything related to the officials and maintains the pace of the game
Verbally and visually communicates all fouls
Counts the offensive players on the field
Determines first downs or if a measurement is necessary
crew chief yes even in kiddy ball but head ref denotes being head of all refs on a crew there is only ONE ref

They didn't do anything to Vinovich and crew so I side with her.

the white hat's responsibility on a pass play, once the passer sets to throw is the PASSER and nothing else - the other 6 officials on that crew all have their area of focus and keys - as has been said many times since that play.
only 1 official had that call.
Not staying with your keys and area you are supposed to be looking at will get you hosed faster any bad, blown or no call that and a lack of hustle.

8 including me(bitten by a baby cotton mouth when i was 10 - dry bite)
5 of the 8 deserved it.....
1 was a texan i was guiding on a goose hunt that well thought mocassins in decoy bags played as fairly as rattlers...... he got bit twice.
1 was a guy playing golf with me on a FL Navy base that didn't realize the "reach" and Eastern Diamond back had when he pocked it with his putter.
1 a guy that cut the head off of a copperhead with a shovel - then picked up the head - reflex bite - major venom
1 a dumbass that thought if a canebreak was not rattling he wasn't pissed.
1.that thought a snake couldn't strikc because it was 36 degrees...
the guy that cut the head off of the copperhead was my fault.. he texted me a pic of the snake and asked if was poisonous ....
my reply.... NO it's NOT POISONOUS............
but it's venomous...... I still feel bad about that...
I caught a coral snake at money hill campground in 1974 as a 9 year old and kept it in aquarium at my house for 10-12 days - thinking it was a scarlet king snake....... at least 10 of my friends handled it during that time and it was always docile..... I did get concerned when we fed it a lizard and it died right after getting bit....

re: Rivals La HS Football Preseason Rankings. - UHS / Dunham too low?

That’s fair, and depth absolutely favors the bigger schools. But size alone doesn’t tell the whole story.
U-High has shown for years that it can play with those programs. Just look at their results v Catholic High in recent years.

Has any other ref been fired for under performance?
They all should be fired.
It happens all the time at all levels.
More so about bad mechanics and rules interpretations that missing or blown calls....
how many plays in a game - How many calls do coaches miss in a game or plays where a player messes up?
Nobody has ever played , coached, officiated, scouted, fanned or parent a perfect game.... ever.

I won't list mine because the people that know me, but don't know my screen name will certainly know me.....
But... a future NBA player, 2 LSU LBs and RB that played in NFL
while I was in school... a wrestler, a volleyball player(who was very hot), a future NFL DB
I went to 3 different schools because of family saga so it would be real easy to pinpoint me.
Jesuit guys - the answer is Pat Screen
HC - Butch Duhe
Shaw guys- don't leave out the Shaw grad that was an integral part of the LSU program but not a player but....... Truck Stop.
bro mart - Ken Bordelon / Raion Hill
DLS - Sammy Martin - left me standing still
Rummel - I'll go w Jamar... or the guy that attended LSU for a bit and I ran into in the Navy........ an absolute freak of nature.
St Aug...... Man that's a toss up
Great thread.... also loved seeing Trey Prather's name in this.
