This episode is a little different from the previous ones. In this episode, we talk with Mike D'Ambrosia from the podcast "Whistle Talk with Mike D the Referee."
Like this podcast, Mike is a little different from most
football officials. He coached the game for 20 years before stepping away to coach his son. Mike still has the heart of a coach, which comes out in our conversation that lasted over two hours. I felt it was all too good to delete or edit, so I divided it into two episodes.
I hope you enjoy part one of this entertaining and
informative conversation with someone who knows the game from both sides of the fence. We talk about different scenarios and tell stories, and Mike gives us the inside scoop on what the officials are looking for and how they will enforce the rules on the field.
