Those complaining about football officials and their mistakes never met Irwin "Bud" Shopbell since he took it upon himself to solve two officiating problems. Shopbell was an automotive engineer from Canton, Ohio, who officiated high school, Mid-American Conference, and Missouri Valley Conference games before moving to the Big Ten in 1963.
First of all who doesn't like the officials? Isn't that why every one watches games to see their favorite team the Zebras in action? LoL. Great work on the research of these items. I can tell you the "clips" as we call them that were featured first in the post are a very clever and helpful device. The other thing that officials are taught is that the pylon in out of bounds in the end zone. When the ball carriers dive and hit the pylon with the ball while air born, TD!
