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 [sic] 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.
Benham, you're a piece of work! You implied "those in the know" had inside information; we poor slobs at Officiating.com didn't. Now you say you received it from authoritative sources. You implied the changes were discussed here. They weren't.

As of a matter of fact, I will go edit something, but the author won't be Garth Benham. He only posts on the free site, which is funded by those people who buy subscriptions. They pay so you can insult Officiating.com.

Free speech truly is free speech for some of us, like you.
Once again, you twist the truth, Carl. I NEVER said the changes were discussed at THIS site. I agree someone said that, but if you will take the time to read my posts and are willing to admit the truth, you will see that it WAS NOT ME. In other words, Carl you told an untruth.

And I didn't imply those in the know had inside, I said it outright. And we did. Many people did. That was the point. Only you and a few others thought you had a scoop. Many of us knew around the date of the press release, June 24th, about the changes, not when you recieved, July 6.

And what is your problem with authoritative sources, in this case folks who had the release before you? You love quoting authoritative sources. In fact you've claimed to be one.

I'm a piece of work? Hell, I'm a piker compared to the old master. The hardest thing for me to ever admit to was that Mike Branche was right.

Now let's get the facts straignt. I said many of us knew about and discussed these changes nearly two weeks ago. I stand by that.

You said that I said it was discussed at this site. That is untrue, and provably untrue.


You said you were on the "A" list. I think you're just on a list.
