No. Read it again carefully. Go ahead. I'll wait. . . Hmmmmmm, hmmmmmmm, hmmmmmmmm.
Ok, so now that you've re-read it, you see that I was not comparing the jokes to your particular comment. I was comparing telling jokes with my buddies to compliling lists of smart*** comments in other threads on this forum. This forum is kind of like the locker room after a game. We can tell the "coach jokes" and compile our favorite smart*** comments, while we're here. But when we go out on the floor, those comments generally bite us in the butt; just as your comment bit you on the butt.

I understand what you are saying which is basically we should keep our favorite comebacks to ourselves ( and to this board)

You are correct.

Well,
one of us is.

I did not say "That is a stupid freaking question and if you are actually a referee then you must be sleeping with the assignor to get any games at all because you obviously have no freaking idea what you are talking about" .
I would consider that a smart a$$ answer

I would consider that to be an invitation to get your butt kicked. That's not a smart** answer, that's an outright insult. A smart*** comment is generally trying to be funny at some level; but the humor is missed or not appreciated in a game situation.

This is irrelevant to my comments.
