Which Ref Is Correct?

The bleachers are pulled in behind the benches. The teams for the next game seem to be waiting behind the benches. The officials for the next game are waiting behind the table, leaning against the packed-in bleachers.

To me, this is clearly off season ball.

Where slackers go to get the rust off. Scrims!

Slackers?

Not sure it's a scrimmage, though. Most scrimmages don't keep track of player fouls; at least in my area.

Yeah that's true here also, but usually the total new guys get their feet wet during scrims.

Varsity group around here is really old. If they aren't doing any other sports scrims are there first game in over half a year. Upside is every year seems like 5 years experience working with retired college officials. Downside is I always go, "YES! I'm not the R1" J/K they make me do it.
