wow...just wow. thanks for sharing that. some colleagues and i were talking just this last weekend how much the sportsmanship levels have changed since we played. (70's and 80's)
i'm relatively new to ref'ng (3rd year), and have been appalled at the things that have said to me by fans. just this last weekend i had a jv game for a AA school (the largest school size in my state), and one of the kids was cubic...5' 8 or so, and 300 pounds...very nice kid. i called him for two fouls. as i was leaving the venue he and his mom were standing there, and as i passed by his mother said,"i don't know why the refs pick on the big kids."
/also, i love the term "jack-wagon"
