I was WH in a varsity game last night. In the first quarter, I had 2 roughing the passers, one USC, and another personal foul. Myself. All against the visiting team. Other than that, it was a 41-0 cakewalk and I saw myself in the prep highlights on TV for the second week in a row.
Today was a doozy, though. Working an 8th grader youth game as the WH in a 3-man. I notice a defender stick an end on the line and I make sure to remind him, essentially, that this isn't the NFL when I hear one of his coaches yelling for him to stick the receiver "in the first five yards."
Later in the game, the kid told the coach what I said and he came out telling me that he could run any formation he wanted. Never understood what I was saying, but got an USC for his troubles.
