Rick Yearout
An opportunity to test your knowledge and skill level using this compilation of football referee’s signals.
It’s time to get pumped up and discover your skill level of the game.
We have assembled this easy to follow set of signals,
descriptions of calls, and when required, the penalty applied.
Whether you are a seasoned veteran, a coach, a die-hard fan or a newbie to the hard-hitting, smash-mouth game of football, you will be challenged by this book.
After you referee your way through every page you can be assured when you see the line judge scurry out on the field and pow-wow with the head referee, there should be no doubt in your mind he made the right call or is a complete idiot.
Rick Yearout lives in Morton, Washington with his wife Ruth where he works as an IT consultant.
They are both avid football fans and enjoyed working together on this book.
Rick also composed, arranged and recorded an instrumental CD entitled “City to Shore”.
He has written and recorded several other songs such as “Red, White and Blue”, a patriotic tribute to our American servicemen.
In his leisure time he relaxes by playing his 12-string guitar.
What exactly does it mean when the head referee chops his forearm, strikes both hands on the sides of his thighs and marches off penalty yards against your team?
Finally available in print, a book and a game which lays out the true meaning of the bizarre gyrations seen on green and white football fields as the men in black and white
blow whistles, wave, swing, point and penalize players on the field for reasons which leave so many of us bewildered.
We observe their signaling antics followed by a mysterious meeting as they huddle together to decipher why the back judge made one call and the side judge made a completely different call.
Then one of them stands in front of 70,000 fans, coaches, teams and team owners to provide some explanation why there were two yellow handkerchiefs laying out on the grass.
Do you think you know the game of football WAY better than the average fan?
Do you consider yourself the authority and football “aficionado” at the office and at home?
Here is the chance you have been waiting for, ... to prove to your friends and family you know the game better than they do.
Or is just the chance to prove to yourself you know the game as well as you thought you did?
