Thumbs up Keep Up The Good Work Tony!!!!

Another display of the Tony thinks his point of view is the only one that matters. Then acts like a little ***** and walks away from the comments when you do not agree with him after he throws out a couple of personal shots. Another great display classless behavior from a guy that needs the internet to show his ability as an official rather than prove it on the court or field.

BTW, this is not the NF board, you cannot do anything to me here.

Peace

Not for nuthin', but how many state finals have you worked, Rut?

Me -- 0
Rut -- 0
Tony -- 2

I'm just saying, seems like he has proved it on the court.

How many State Finals did he work in Illinois? (I think the answer would be zero)

How many Division 1 games has he worked? How many NCAA Tournament games has he worked?

One of the best officials I have ever met and worked with has never worked a HS playoff game EVER. He worked his first NCAA Tournament this past year.

I guess if working a State Final is your only goal in life, you got me there. If I never work a State Final in basketball, it will not be the end of the world if I accomplish many of my other goals.

Peace

You've missed the point and moved the target. You said that Tony should prove how good he is on the court or field, rather than trying to do it on a forum.

One does not get a state final in NC, IL or anywhere without having proved one's ability on the court. He's proved it on the court (and on the gridiron, if I'm not mistaken). The fact that Tony doesn't work D1 or that your friend worked the NCAA Tournament without ever doing a HS state final is irrelevant.

You said Tony should prove his ability on the court, and I was merely pointing out that he has.

Chuck,

If Tony is man enough he will defend himself. His discussion with Dan is typical of what he does all the time and all over the internet. Then he has to have his friends step in for him because he cannot be man enough to stand on his own. You once again missed the point and that is why you used State Final accomplishments as your barometer for proving something. I hope I never have to come here and claim how many State Finals I worked as the evidence to what people think of me as an official. Frankly no one outside of my state or the state I accomplish this in is going to care. That was made very clear to me when I went to a couple of D1 camps this summer.

Peace
