Furthermore, mplagrow needs to be corrected for an earlier thread. Im sorry; I usually back up other officials, especially in the presence of a coach. But I cannot let this obvious mistake slide. Blue does not beat black. You should know that. Im so disappointed.

ROTFL. . . . .are you talking about NCAA or FIBA? Cause I think it's different in high school.

How is it not possible that someone that is human like you all say officials are, would not or could not be influenced by a coach. This is one that still no one can explain to me.

For me it's called turning a deaf ear. Or rather, it's knowing that I'm being worked at all times (not by all coaches, but just ones like you) and not letting myself get caught up in it.

So I say this and tonight end up whacking a varsity girls head coach. But I didn't get caught up in it.

Hey to the greatest zebras in the world, thanks for all of your posiitve comments. The game of basketball is better off because you show up for two hours and blow your whistle.

Thanks

Who has a game that lasts 2 hours?

I'm always struggling to get the game going faster than that so I can get out of there sooner!

Man, someone must have screwed up and allowed an overtime.
