Totally agree. Since I started refereeing basketball last year, I have made it the point to let the officials do their job and only comment to myself. Yelling at them will only make them either miss more calls, or make the wrong calls. MY concern as well is around the safety of the players. Because he let a few things go the other night it was very chippy. With about 3 minutes left in the first half a player for the other team was called for a dangerous play in the box on a corner kick. He tried to heel kick the ball with his foot near player's head. At the time, the call was right and we were awarded an indirect kick at the 6 yard line. A few seconds later, the ref realized that our player was bleeding from the head because of the contact. Because of this new information, he could have given the player a card and change the result of the foul to a direct (penalty) kick, but didn't. The player couldn't play the second half because the bleeding never stopped, but could have been avoided if the referee had better control of the game.

Anyone here ever eat Thuringer as a kid? I can't find it anywhere.

There was a play in my son's game the other night where the opposing keeper came out cleats first and took the striker out.....no call at all. He did get a little of the ball, but the cleats first should have been a card. It's all about protecting the players....and Karma is real thing, we won 6-0.

Definitely Yellow. Maybe Red since he made no attempt to play the ball and came in cleats first.

Awful play by mountcastle.

"This is pure snow!' One of my favorite 80s movies....

Round 2 here.

Sleeting 5 minutes ago mixed in with some deformed flakes. :-)

Sleeting now mixed in with some deformed flakes. :-)

Just dropped the kids off at school. Saw a few wet flakes hit the windshield with that last little wave which passed by.

thanks! I'll use this and let you know how it goes.

Looks like someone spotted one in town on the 26th. Need to get some feeders and put them out.

thanks for the advice. What type of nectar do you use? Is it homemade?

I know. :-) But it all goes back to Tool with me. Maybe that makes me one.

His original post made me think of Aenima from Tool........

Just looked the outage up. They claim it will be restored by 3:30.

I wish I knew someone named Leon.

and I thought this was bad.....

Can she try apples off the tree from an orchard? I thought they only put pectin on the apples to preserve them when shipping and to give that fake shine.

I can't wait for my son's Varsity Soccer game tomorrow evening. Is it better to have the wind to your back in the first half and have more energy in the second half, or have the wind to your back in the second half after fighting it all first half.....

nice playoff hockey

Happy Birthday!

i agree. I only worry because of their age. They looked very "OLD" the past two years in the playoffs.

I just hope the Caps aren't peaking now.
