fan control

[Jurassic Referee]

Proper verbal behavior is a two-way street. How about last night's junior varsity Ref who responded to a player's moderately spoken remark - "But I got all ball!" - by whirling around to face the player and screaming "Shut Your Mouth!"

Can this Fan issue a warning to the Ref about lack of professionalism? I hope so....because I did.

If you are an official, how can you publically put down another official? Not very ethical!

If you are a fan, what exactly makes you different than the ref? You say "proper verbal behaviour is a two-way street", and then you decided to verbally deride the official.Yes, the referee showed a lack of professionalism with his comments. Your comments on a public stage weren't any better. Two wrongs don't make a right!
