I think every one is missing the sarcasm in the original post. W&S indicated that it was "funny as hell." Hell, we all know or presume, is not very funny. Therefore, I believe W&S was offering his own condemnation (condamnation?) of his partner's actions.

Intersting story. Honestly I did not laugh when reading it.

What impact did this have on the "blue" coach with a new & different crew officiating later in the season in a tight game - and needs to make a judgement call?

Onward!

And what did this little "joke" do to the credibility of that official with the coach of the other team...even though he didn't say anything at the time, I guarantee you that he will remember it and it will come back to bite the official in the azz at some future point...there are lots of ways to have fun and enjoy what we do without pulling something like this. As others have said, I just don't see the humor.

Wooooow, my whole post got deleted. I sort of feel honored.

Does that still count as one of my posts?
