The home team coach said, "I just want the foul called, who cares about consistency." Now all the fouls we called were fouls that players were basically players were knocked to the floor and the coach wanted us to call the little touches and we were already in the bonus. I in my years of doing boy's games, I have never heard that claim from a Boy's varsity coach.


Rut, I agree that is a dumb comment from a coach. It is too bad that you had that experience. I have never heard anything stupid like that from a coach around here. One idiot girls coach doth not make them all idiots (or something Shakespearean like that).


But then again, I guess there is a reason I know an Boy's assignor that told an official he would not hire him at this point because he did too many Girl's games in his schedule. And went on further to say, I cannot convince my coaches to hire someone that does a lot of Girl's games.


Boy, that really is too bad. I'm sure glad I don't see that attitude around here. That would really suck to have to work for such an ignorant assignor and group of coaches. Because we have a shot clock for girls games here in Washington, the officials who do both have far better clock awareness in boys games than the officials who only do boys games. They also seem to have more patient whistles.
