When using docker load on a tarball I am getting an invalid argument

As my question states I'm trying to use docker load on a tarball to get my image repository but when doing this it finishes with an invalid argument. I tried re-running the command with the debug flag but it doesn't show any more information. Here is what I am doing and seeing

MacBook-Pro:xquery-training2 john$ sudo docker -D load -i xquery-training.tar

Verify your image was saved in the same docker version as you are attempting to load.

Saved older versions may not be compatible with newer versions of docker.
