5. The Nfl is a great illustration of an organization that isn’t afraid to change or improve itself. This is evidenced by how the association added more officials to its standard officiating crew. As the game rules and style of play evolved, the nfl recognized that calling a game would be more difficult. Using more officials is a fantastic example of how utilizing more perspectives from a larger group of people can make problem solving easier. Can u think of a time when using more points of view helped you in school?

8. Just like many academic and professional groups, nfl officials have uniforms and specialized equipment to use. Their uniforms help to make them easily identifiable. Their tools look like foreign objects to some, but when used correctly, they serve a very handy purpose. Can you think of some other groups of people who use specialized equipment? What kinds of things do they use?

11. Nfl officials use long-developed techniques, just like many professionals and academic groups. They have highly technical methods for calling a game, and specialists that use those studied methods efficiently to produce high-quality work. Can you think of a professional or academic group that uses advanced methods? Can u think of different fields that incorporate specialists working toward a common goal?

12. As you can see, nfl officials as a group are like many other scholarly groups! They use well- developed methods, specialized tools and equipment, and evolved thought processes. They have distinguishable uniforms that make them recognizable. Wow! It’s no wonder why so many of these people are found in highly-regarded fields! Officiating may look simple on tv, but now that you’ve learned about their techniques, maybe you’ll come to have a least a little more respect for the guys in stripes.
