I hope that the two of you don't call basketball games. You obviously have no concept of how to communication objectively with other people.

LOL! That's the best you've got? That's the absolutely best post you can come up with?

Personally, I think it's damn funny that JR and myself were both posting at the smae time and posted almost the identical same thing.

It's not funny, it's a shame. This is a great forum. It is unfortunately poisoned by people who would rather curse, name call and toss insults.

I apologize if my use of the word damn offends you. It's not uncommon on these boards and I don't believe directed it in a profane way towards anyone.

Insulting? Don;t believe my reply was anymore insulting than mcrowder's post. I'm sure he's a big boy and doesn't need you to up for him. But don't sit there and tell us that you didn't mean for your post to be insulting. I have a right to my opinion just as you have a right to yours. "Fanboy" is a term that we use for posters who come here and accuse officials of cheating. If that offends you or you consider it name calling, oh well.

Apology accepted, and my apologies to you, my post was insulting.

I don't think anyone was accusing the officials of cheating. We were simply pointing out some questionable calls. Believe it or not, all of us officials miss calls and sometimes it happens at the worst possible time. And I'll repeat what I said originally, and that is that I'm not blaming the officials for the Mavs loss.

And I am still "frustrated"...We were two minutes away from sweeping the series (I believe a game 3 win would have equated to a game 4 win).

Losing 4 in a row had little to do with the officiating. The officials were consistently not calling the off-ball contact against Nowitzki and were consistently calling the on-ball contact against Wade. My point is they were consistent. We just didn't like what they chose to call and what they didn't. Yet that is no excuse. You learn to play with-in the confines of how the game is called and play on. The Heat did, the Mavs didn't...now we wait till next year.

Well, my opinion is that forum is poisoned by fanboys who wander out of the woodwork every year and whine about how the mean ol' officials cost their team a game/championship. Sound familiar? I also think that this forum is poisoned by people who call themselves officials, but at the first chance they get, they will dump all over other officials if their team happens to be involved. Again, does that sound familiar? Doing that is just setting a terrible example to other, newer maybe-impressionable officials. Quite simply, it is unprofessional.

That is you, fanboy.

Let me tell you exactly what I think of fanboy/officials:
1) I don't think that a fanboy/official could ever be trusted to give both teams a fair shake. They're too used to picking sides.
2) Personally, I don't want to work with an official that I can't trust. Being afraid to turn your back on your partner isn't my idea of a fun time.

The Mavs lost 2 freaking days ago, Tex. It's done! It's over! No matter how hard or long you whine, that ain't gonna change. You gotta deal with it, fanboy. Let it go.

You should consider some counseling. Maybe an anger management class.

You should consider leaving officiating, if you really are an official. Our avocation obviously wasn't meant for you.

It must be summer. There's so little to talk about we're arguing about an NBA game. You know, I was watching pro wrestling the other night and the referee clearly counted slower for one guy's pin than the other. That's about the same thing to me

I read recently that passive-aggressive types usually grew up in a household with a missing or unusually weak father figure.
