I have a friend that was banned by a coach for something that happened during this season early on. Me and this official were supposed to work a game with this team a few weeks back, but he was removed from the game because the coach had banned him. It actually was the only game where I lost to weather that was cancelled from a bad snow storm the day of the game. Now in a week or so the playoffs start and guess were my friend was assigned to work the first level of playoffs? You got it, at the school and with the coach that banned him.

I just love how coaches get so concerned with who is on their games but when they have little control over these things, they get that very same official they did not want to see. It was hilarious to me when I saw a listing of the officials and the sites and my friend was working at this school. I worked with him tonight and we had a good laugh about the situation.

This is why I say, "Do your job and let the chips fall where they may."

Peace
