"Can a Referee Tell me to shut up?"

[theboys]

Hey, JR.

No offense taken. I tried to explain it in my baseball / kids' strike zone analogy.

Its NOT that I think a ref is thinking, "the coach of that team is a jerk, he's not getting any fouls called for him." Like I said, I can't speak for other people, but I've never thought a ref was trying to screw my team.

My perspective is, "the ref thinks the contact here is different than the contact there. Sure looks the same to me."

Its not questioning someone's integrity, its just a different perspective. And I'll be the first to admit my perspective is the biased one.
