I listened to his opinion, I heard it & I as well as others on this thread didnt agree that this situation required a group talk. I hope that is okay with you...

Perhaps, but it rings as much from Nov-March as it does now, so...

Based on tref's history with other situations that were actually worse, I just wonder more whether he is carrying his cockiness that he displays here into his games a bit too much. Maybe not - I don't know, but it sure seems odd that so many players are willing to vent their frustration so blatantly directly at him. |
No he wasnt wasnt there, but he has good reading comprehension skills.
The only thing that slowed down the ball & made it change directions was the mohawk of his teammate.

Who knows... this time of year I'm usually paired up with wreck refs & I notice that they want to be liked more than respected. They lean toward the safe call while I hand out Ts like they're skittles.
