You shoulda' dumped him as you left the field without even breaking stride.

"You making all this money, you should learn the rules" were the last words said to me by a coach, in a game his team had a huge lead in. He had his back turned to me and was walking away at the time. This lead to a brohaha, that ended up with me dumping 4 players in the next 30 seconds, including his son, F1, who was next to be dumped, followed by F5, and F6 and finally by another player, I know not what position, who ran up behind me mouthing something, and when I turned around I ejected him for being there. I don't have a clue what he said. This game was one of two forfeits I have ever been involved in. This was a 15-17 year old summer rec league game.
