The following link is to the Soccer Officials' Forum at the NFHS webstie. I did not know whether to laugh or cry.

MTD, Sr.

I am laughing myself silly at how silly soccer officials are.

You need to go to your attic & make a sacrificial offering to your J Dallas Shirley monument to atone for your involvement in this foreign activity.

Dan:

I know; you are so right. The only thing more un-American is hacky-sack; and this stupid game was invented in America.

MTD, Sr.

Fyi Mark really does have J. Dallas Shirley up in the attic. Not a monument either. Nope...the real one....stuffed. Got him on E-Bay.

It's true, it's true.......

Btw, Nevada is a soccer official. You calling him silly too?

Are you really "ashamed" to be a soccer official b/c somebody wasn't sure what to do about sunglasses? That might be silly, just a little. Maybe. Shrug.

Bucky showed up about 6 to 8 months ago on the NFHS basketball board. He also posts as "second year" on McGriff (which I can hardly even stand to open anymore).

He's an award winning idiot.

While we're talking about the NFHS website, does anyone know how to find your username and password? I posted there a few times, but can't remember my info. I pocked around the site a little bit but didn't see a feature to help you out. I guess I should spend a little more time on that board.

The only way I know Nevada is by what he posts here.

I have yet to make my way all the way through a post by Nevada. Too many words.

So I have too little information to honestly say that Nevada is silly.

But I'll take your word for it.

:)

For the record, I did <b>not</b> say Nevada was silly. I <b>did</b> say that Nevada was a soccer official.

Hmmmmmmmmm.....

Chicken<------->Egg? :D

Soooo... If I get you right, you consider each and every soccer official silly only because one of them (or should I say, of us) lacks judgment and common sense?!

And Mark: Why are you ashamed? This idiot is an isolated case! Or is stupidity a common practice on the NFHS soccer forum?

Sure, why not.

Now what?

Ooooooooooo.......

Now you've done it......

You're gonna get a kick in the grass......

The real funny part of the soccer post...
 

Have you ever invoked Rule 5.3.2.g, the "power to make decisions on any point not specifically covered" in the rules?

Conversely, IS THERE ANYTHING NOT SPECIFICALLY COVERED IN THE RULES?"

LOL...is this guy for real?

Re: The real funny part of the soccer post...
 

As BktBallRef said, the same guy has been posting on the basketball forum over at McGriffs under the <i>nom denet</i> of "secondyear" for the last year or two. If you had ever read some of his posts over there, you would know whether he was real or not. That soccer post almost makes him look like a genius when compared to some of the things that he's written.

Re: Re: The real funny part of the soccer post...
 

I guess all I can say is...Um...Yikes.

Re: Re: The real funny part of the soccer post...
 

LOL I can't stand him, not to mention GL either... OIYE.

Boy, you guys are tough!
I try to straighten out a fellow official who has received poor information from his local interpreter and I get dumped on.

Silly me. :) I should have known.

Aw, Nevada, you know that we were just kidding and that we all have a deep and abiding respect for you and the game of soccer. After all, soccer <b>is</b> the official national game of France.

Which brings up another point however......

There has been a definitive study issued by the AMA that shows that persons who watch, play or officiate more than 3 soccer games a year slowly begin to morph into a Frenchman. That includes wimmen of the feminine persuasion too. The AMA has given this newly-identified malady the name <b>"Padgett's Syndrome"</b>. The good news, though, is that the AMA has also issued a test that outlines the warning signs associated with this dastardly disease:
1) Have you started sprinkling cheese on your corn flakes?
2) When someone says "hello" to you, do you immediately throw both arms up in the air and say "I surrender"?
Take immediate action if any of the warning signs show up. Kick a football; shoot some baskets; play catch with a baseball(not a softball--that's for sissies and Larks).

Now....don't be silly.

Well... It's hopeless to argue any longer, then. You win. :)

JR - I believe you are suffering from a bad case of soccerphobia. You should see a doctor. :) BTW, you'd get your A$$ kicked in soccer :)

I looked at the dates and was amazed. I had not been on the NFHS soccer site in many months..and that was for only the 2nd or 3rd visit...That Sunglasses topic was a major thread last fall. I am too lazy to investigate, but I'd be willing to bet a pair of Mark's finest fishnets that the first interjection of the word 'sunglasses' in that thread was by the instigator of the inane thread several months ago. And silly me. Being a former HS soccer player, I commented. My thoughts then were the same as now. The coach has to be a real dork to have a kid on the team on the field wearing sunglasses. And whatever happened to 'eyeblack'?
