I can't believe you would even post this when I tried to do exactly what ace said and email you off of the board. I still haven't heard anything yet. -edit- If you agree then agree. I wanted to edit this post after I left the house this morning. I don't want to make it seem as though I'm attacking Rainmaker but this is something I tried to handle off line.

Tom -- I tried to reply privately to your e-mail, but it bounced back twice. I'm not sure why.

Rainmaker, Mick, Jurassic, you can't possibly agree when an official admits to not knowing the climate of the game to the point where the game is a 24 point game within 2 minutes.

I'm not sure what I agreed with that you're objecting to. Ace posted a description of why it happened, and it implied that he felt he had goofed. You then posted that you thought he had goofed. Your description of why matched what Ace had described. I sort of sarcastically pointed out that you were repeating what Ace had just said. That's all. I didn't agree with him, and I didn't disagree with him. I didn't agree with you, and I didn't disagree with you.

Maybe you can, but IMHO that is a failure on our part (we have all made mistakes).

I agree. And I think Ace saw that, too, and has been trying to agree with that.

I have T'd a coach up with .6 on the clock but he came at me with some profanity that I will not even try to repeat. I have also let a coach sit there and watch his team get blown out instead of helping him to the locker room early. The two main things are: we have to be aware of the game situation and manage it accordingly whether you decide to issue a T or not and I don't know if yelling "that's an And 1" warrants a T. Of course typing what the coach said does not always convey how it came across live. This is not a personal attack on Ace or anyone else but some things said just don't jive with me (not talking about Ace).

I don't understand why you're so upset about this, but if you'll tell me what the problem is, I'll be glad to try and work out some sort of resolution. I don't see you as attacking anyone, and I don't think I attacked anyone eityer. What should I do differently next time so that this doesn't happen again?
