Great comment. That really points out what kind of person you are. Demean a complete group of fellow officials in another sport just to try and strengthen your point.

Jeff disagreed with the way that soccer is being officiated; it's officiating philosophy iow. He didn't make any comment at all on the general competency of soccer officials, and he sureasheck didn't insult them personally as a group by using ridiculous generalities.

Sad, Nevada, just sad!

I could be wrong, but I read that comment as a joke to go along with the "go back to the football board" crack.

How 'bout them Spurs/Mavericks?
Don't know anything bout the whiny Spurs, or the Dallas Cubans...

I do know that the Rockets lead their series against Utah 2-0. Had free tix to the game last night!

And we have baseball team in Texas. Perhaps you remember them, they were swept in the WS year before last.

Thank you, sir! So the current FAA age limit for pilots is 60, which just so happens to be what I recommended for HS basketball officials.
This is just a small difference between the job of a commercial passenger pilot and that of a high-school basketball referee!

Yeah ... how was the weather up there anyway? I wish I had brought my binoculars so that we could have seen you from our seats.

Best part of the night -- you texting me that Matt was questioning calls up there with you ... in the LAST ROW of the arena! Priceless!!!
