My, but you're getting cranky in your old age.

Why would I complain to Referee? I didn't complain to you. There is, as most former educators of English are aware, a difference in taking note and complaining.

I would have to care about the success or Officiating.com or your accuracy to complain. I don't.

As for your lame attempt at a Dewey Wins comparison, did you notice the date on the press release of when the action was actually taken? Two weeks ago, Carl. Those of us who were notified and discussed the rule changes were not acting out of rumor or speculation. We had the real information, two weeks before you were notified.

No need to get you panties in a knot, Carl. If it's important to you to amaze folks with your new found fact that the internet is faster than publishing on paper, feel free to gloat.

But I'll bet Referee doesn't have to dredge up two year old columns to fill space.
Mr. Benham:

We "filled space" with a specific column written to helpo with summer problems. In the 5 years of Officiating.com, that is the only "Instant Replay" that made it to the front page again.

BTW: When ever the press release was written, it was not released until today.
Just frosts you to be wrong, don't it?

My, my: Selective quoting again.

I've followed your "career" as a pretend calming influence in the windy ways of our Forum.

You're a fake, Garth Benham. There's not ten cents of substantive difference between you and the McGriffers.

You tell me it just "frosts" me to be wrong. Nobody like to be wrong, of course -- as you no doubt know from your own history. But I challenged you to post an email from the FED with an earlier date than ours. You replied to my post, but carefully left that challenge out. So as yet, I don't know where I'm proved wrong.

Lah, me, dearie. (I say that because you seem obsessed with a guy wearing panties. Sorry, not my cup of tea.) [/B][/QUOTE]

Now, now Erick, I mean Carl. Careful about who you call a fake. Besides faking posts how about your "dearie" brother-in-law you invented? Talk about a cup of tea. To go throught the trouble of inventing a gay brother-in-law, you must have had the whole pot.

I really don't give squat about a challenge from you. Why should I? I never said I was given the press release dated June 24 that you receive this morning. I said I was given the information it contained nearly two weeks ago, and by authoritative sources. The kind you quote when you don't have the official source. I said it was discussed and debated on various sites. Maybe they should gloat about scooping Offciating.com

You remind me of a story George Gobel told on the old Johnny Carson Tonight Show. He had was eating lunch somewhere in Hollywood and someone came up to him and asked: "Didn't you used to be somebody?"

Why don't you set a good example for your employers and go edit something.
