Book Description

When you watch football games, do you feel as if you know as much—maybe more—than the actual refs? Here's your chance to prove it, with Wayne Stewart’s You’re the Ref. You’re the Ref, first published in 2011 and now newly revised, is divided into five exciting sections covering all three phases of the game—offense, defense, and special teams. From basic holding and pass interference calls to more complicated rules such as roughing the kicker, illegal touching and those governing fumbles, it examines just about every scenario that could unfold on a football field. Most of the situations in this book come from real games—many that diehard fans will be sure to remember—so don your zebra stripes, grab your whistle, and take your position in the offensive backfield. After all, you're the ref!
