I'm baffled by the refs these days. Both teams got away with the inbounder stepping inbounds before releasing the ball. When did the easiest calls become obsolete from the game.

I am honestly getting old. These "get off my lawn" monuments are really seeping through these days.

Here's the way rules get changed . . .

More and more players keep breaking a particular rule, until everybody is doing it. Refs, instead of doing their jobs and cracking down, let it go a little more and a little more, until they are no longer calling it, except in the most outrageous, egregious cases. Like with traveling and carrying. Technically the rules haven't changed, but from a practical standpoint, they have effectively changed. Refs have no guts, and nobody else wants to be the bad guy and speak up. Now we have a whole generation that don't even know the rules, they just know what gets called and what doesn't, which is a different thing altogether.
