    What we do not do.

            * We do not have less than 5 on field officials for all games.  Anything less puts teams at jeopardy of missed alls and player safety.  It also inhibits officials from performing their duties to the best of their ability.

            *  We do not permit unchecked and scrutinized league or team message boards demeaning the ideals of football, football teams, administrators, coaches, players and leagues.

            * We do not require players to play in "back to back" games.  In football, this is an unhealthy and dangerous practice putting players at a high risk of injury.

            * We do not schedule based on teams past success or expected seasons success.  Scheduling top contender to play weaker opponents and not playing each other in order to protect a teams record is not accepted.   

            *We do not publcize logos of companies identified as sponsors suggesting financial support when they are actually companies supplying services or products for a fee. 

            * We do not publicize or advertise TV or internet TV broadcasts of games that are not in fact actually broadcast with the suggested appearnce of a "TV Deal".       

            We do not utillize player fees to owners to be used for personal use such as breakfasts and lunches at meetings.  Payment for such items are paid directly by those in attendance.
