I can't remember if we did this before....

I'll start:

3-person mechanics :p

Next...

Well, on this site, we used to call it "banging" to give a T to a coach. It just started feeling weird to me to talk about banging this coach and banging that coach and how many coaches have you banged this year. I managed to get it changed to "whacking". THere may still be connotations, but they're not quite as lascivious.

"Blue ball."

"Over the back". Oh wait - never mind.

Blasphemer!!!!!

"Reaching in!"

There is also "**** Violation"

"I once had a sense of humour but now I am a referee"

not to steal your sig but...

I once had a sense of humor then I read this thread:

http://www.officialforum.com/thread/24519

Well, well, well......

An "esteemed member" shows up.....

JR:

I don't know if you're linking me as the phantom 'esteemed member' or not but my post was merely a (failed) attempt at humor by hijacking the parent's sig and ....oh well nevermind.

Well, there's 10 second, 5 second, and 3 second violations. Interestingly, none of those are considered player control fouls... :D

Don't forget Padgett's favourite....

PALMING :D

My apologies for linking you to the phantom.

Bet this thread pisses him off no end.

"Illegal use of the hands." :eek:

Going to the hole.
Slamming it home.
Scoring.
Getting penetration.
Stuffing it down someone's throat.

(For women's rules)

"In the coach's box"

That's great.......

backside foul
thumping (really pertains to jerseys)
"and 1"
held ball
going to the rack

not sure if this is one, but when vitale says it, it sounds dirty

dipsy-doo, dunkeroo

How about these. Facial and packed.

I just got to tell you a story then. We have an instructor who have a trick to help us remember the four golde rules of officiating.
1. Box in
2. Look for the hole
3. Penetrate
4. Move constantly
So he told us this story (directed to boys for obvious reasons :p )

You're going into a bar, you look around. "Alright, any nice girls?". Then you're boxing in.
Then you select one and start a date, and invite them home. Have a drink or what ever, and well, when you get to the more sexual part I think the rest makes sence :rolleyes:
Look for the hole
Penetrate
and Move Constantly

I'll never forget the rules for sure :D

You know, I'm not one who ever complains about off-topic threads or threads that take a humorous turn. Nor am I easily offended. But this whole thread is kind of like bad junior high humor. Can we get rid of it?

Z

I dunno Z, I think the thread started somewhat lower than junior high humor to begin with and rapidly descended from there. ;)

Gotta admit, I teach Junior High, and I'm sure they'd be getting a kick out of this. Are ALL referees this repressed and immature? I know I am.;)

Yes. And while we're at it, we'll get rid of:

Davisms
Squirrels
fishnets
Red Sox threads
short jokes
fat jokes


Shall I go on? :rolleyes:

Davisms are about the only good thing on that list. You can toss everything else.

I can't get past your handle.

You've seen the email that shows how you only need the first and last letter to read a word?

Well, what word to you think I see when I see "canuckrefguy"?

I love "whacking" a coach. It just fits in with my Godfather lifestyle. :D
