Referees are people and just like people in any other walk of life, there are good people and bad people. Some people love to make themselves feel better by talking about the mistakes and faults of others. That's going to be true in any business, church, avocation, whatever.

I'm sorry that it happened to you, but it does happen.

No, no, no....that can't be right. The original post stated "Worse Than Church Wimmen". What could possibly be worse than that(he innocently asked)?

"Worse than Church Women" is just the old phrase for how fast gossip spreads in church circles. No offense was meant to women, to churches, or to men that feel they gossip better than women and were give the number 2 slot.

so offense was meant to the 3-toed sloth who we all know loves to gossip about rule interpretations and the gradual decline of Keynesian economics and how it pertains to the inverse of proper mechanical application of said rules.

Well, I certainly wasn't offended. Hell, I agree with you. It's been downhill ever since we gave wimmen the vote.

And don't get me started on allowing 'em to drive.....

Opps! Don't you mean wimmin? (avoiding any use of the letters m.e.n. in that pronoun)

Great! Now we have the annoying SLANG police.

Be careful.

When Hillary's president she's gonna round you up and you'll never be heard from again.

You looking forward to spending the rest of your life in a cell with Barak Obama?

No chance there, Carnac, no chance. Hilary has got the same chance of getting to be President as France has of invading Germany. No way, no how. Nada. Nyet. Nuh-huh!

Can you see her with her finger on the button deciding whether to nuke a few red states or not, and her all-wimmin advisory committee is saying "Just go with the flow, hon."?

Think we made Juulie's head explode yet?
