The Super Bowl of Self Control

Transcript

It’s early February and we are right smack in the middle of Championship Football Season! College is decided and its Seattle vs New England in the upcoming Super Bowl
Congrats to Curt Cignetti and the Indiana Hoosiers on their undefeated season of 16-0 and the school’s first football national championship.  The game had some print dedicated afterwards to the officiating and no calls on some seemingly cheap shots on IU QB Fernando Mendoza.

We don’t ever think much about the “officials” in our lives do we?

They make sure the rules are followed and strictly enforced and their best day is when we never notice them.

Have you ever thought about what is required to become a major college or NFL official?

Certainly, all of us have seen multitudes of sideline shots with a head coach mouthing foul words and stalking the poor official whose job it is to be the side judge and stand right in front of each team’s bench the entire game.

You know what it takes???

Galatians 5:22 calls it fruit of the spirit – and self-control is in extremely short supply these days!

Today my guest is a man with a tremendous resume of officiating experience from Texas High School through Division 1 College, NFL, and even a booth replay official.  There’s nothing like hearing some stories from a guy who was on the field with the players and in the booth with the announcers so strap in for a great ride.
