Preach it, JR...preach it!! [/B][/QUOTE]Well, Rock, I just had this picture kinda flash through my head(nothing to stop it):

I get to listen to all the complaints when they initially come in. I can just see me sitting there at home one night, all cosy and comfy, nice and quiet because the wife is out, fire burning, feet up, dogs dozing beside me, watching that copy of Rainmaker Does Portland that you sent me, and all of a sudden the phone rings. I answer it and I get one of those coach/lifers on the other end- you know the kind- crusty ol' goof that never met an official yet that he really liked or trusted. After he's through spitting a gallon or two at me through the earpiece, he finally comes out with "Do you know what one of your guys did tonight? We're up 1 with 2 seconds left. My guy makes a great block on a breakaway. All ball all the way. There's a foul called on my guy. I asked him whatinthehell was that foul for? And do you know what he said? DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID? He told me that there wasn't any physical contact, but he tomahawked the ball and he violated the spirit of the rule. HE TOMAHAWKED THE BALL!! Now tell me, JR, whatinthehell do you have to say to that?"

To which I reply "homina, homina,homina....."
