He immediately changed the subject to basketball and football. Then FVB9 chimed in on the same thought I had. Jeff worked some Juco small ball and never saw the post season for any of them.

You do not even have the balls to list your name and you expect me to tell you something like that? When you start sharing with everyone here who you are so the rest of us can know exactly what you do, until then, it is none of your business where I work.

My bigger laugh was when he tried to throw South Bend in the mix. Rather than name the colleges, he implies that he gets assignments in big college towns. This is a trademark Rutism. He dismisses it by saying that he never meant to say Notre Dame, but how many people here think of St. Mary's when we think of South Bend? Classic Rut and a great way to finish the year strong. I have stayed away from Rut bashing because it is so easy and many of you do it better. Like FVB9, I couldn't resist no replying to this blunder.

Actually BigUmp was right. I did officiate a basketball game at the University of Indiana at South Bend about 4 or 5 years ago. If I told you that I worked at Purdue University, you would claim that I had only worked in Lafayette (That is where the game check came from). There is more than one Purdue University. If you knew anything about the college systems in this country, that would not be the only assumption you would make. Like if I said I have a relative that went to University of Wisconsin. There are about 5 different Universities of WisconsinÂ’s. That is why when I talk to people that know anything about education I would qualify my statement by saying she went to The University of Wisconsin at Madison. South Bend is a town, not a college, but you knew that right?

Next we will here that he once worked college games in Tallahassee, Chicago, Baton Rouge, Madison and Columbus. Only they weren't Florida State, UIC, LSU, Wisconsin or Ohio State. ROTFLMAO

That is really funny coming from you. You never tell anyone anything about you other than vague references and vague implications. You talk in code all the time telling people you work college ball, but never a conference is mentioned or the actual town. Then you say you work Minor League baseball, but you never mention the league. I not only mentioned the towns I have worked games in, I am using my real name to do it. You on the other hand say nothing. You say stuff like you were at a Super-Regional and I work Class AA ball Minor League ball, but not towns, dates or conferences you worked in. Now you are claiming you work for Fetch and you have said many times before that you did not work for Fetch and you did not want to belong to an association that Fetch is the member of because you got games from other sources.
Actually if I said I worked a game in Tallahassee, there is more than one college in Tallahassee. I would know I have a few close relatives that attended both major universities in Tallahassee. One played on the football team and one a National Championship. Guess which university that I am talking about now.
