A Dutch Ref Tue Dec 02, 2003 05:29am

If you think that your last-game partner was a showboat, or that the ref you saw working a game last week was drawing attention... Grab hold because you've ain't seen nothing yet! I came across a really funny clip on the gmcgriff board, 'starring' a soccer referee... You must see this for yourself!!!

Since the direct URL doesn't seem to work, I'll just post a link to the gmcgriff board...

Once you are there click 'funny soccer referee'...

I'd like to read your reactions :D

wtf?
 
My lands! That was gr8! Where did you get that? He was crazy--don't tell me that he isn't from around here? MLB soccer? Wow...pretty good--it's all show, sometimes, eh? But, he had to be involved professionally. That just might be what some leagues need? Who knows...it sure would high-light our jobs (as referees),eh? Hmmm. Good one, dutch...thx

I'll be the first to say it . . . .


That guy sure as hell had presence.

I can only hope that the game was a charity match to raise money for the city's ballet troope and they got one of the ballerinas to officiate as a publicity stunt. Wow.

He seemed, um, interesting. Not that there's anything wrong with that....

You sent me an e-mail in which the only words were:

"See this, mon!"

I didn't know what you meant by that...

In reply to your questions in your post:

I came across it by coincidence while browsing the gmcgriff soccer board. I think the guy is from Italy (since the URL of that clip ends in '.it')... I really think it's a pity that we don't work with yellow and red cards as basketball refs, because I'd sure like to try to send a player of in such a way ....
