I've read some stupid remarks on this board but that one takes the cake, from a rookie poster, no less.

I guess since we're supposed to "ref" the defense, we should get rid of:

Traveling
Stepping out of bounds
3 seconds
BC violations
Double dribble
Palming

I mean, if we're "refing" the defense, then we can't possibly make any of these calls.

Personally, I can see the floor, watch the offensive player and officiate the defense. Maybe you'll be able to some day, too.

Rookie f***ing know-it-all. Is that clear enough for ya?
