And for the record, I agree with him. But I don't want to argue about it. So I took the easy way out.

Not to be nosy, but are his reasons public knowledge? If so, why is he "in hiding?" Just curious.

If you have a large bag with all the items you need to officiate, you pull out your can of starch and spray the net. If you don't, you never stop a running clock to fix the net.

Hey TJ1,
Do you have a can of spray starch in your bag? I have a can of static guard but no spray starch!

Chuck started doing some NCAA D1 games this year. He didn't think that it would be a good idea to continue posting and maybe get involved in confrontations, flames, etc. It was his own personal choice. I can see his reasoning. You never know who is reading these forums or how they might react to some posts.

He is certainly missed.

Chuck Elias

On the bright side, it looks like he has been ably replaced by Old School and Scrappy1.
