...and do the rest of the game in shame and ignominy. At least, that explanation shut up a scorekeeper once, who thought I got off too lightly.
Juulie,I've got a thick skin and I've never been noted for having rabbit ears,but if a scorer ever started to comment on the officiating to me-whether it was about me or my partners-well,I think that it might just be a very short speech by him.Criticizing us isn't part of their job description.I'd shut 'em up in a huury too,but maybe in a different way that you did.
