Maybe Chuck or Rocky can take chairs out on the floor to stand on when they're officiating too.

Just a thought.....

Or maybe they can get something like that mechanical thingy in the Wild, Wild West movie. Can't you see Rocky or the Chuckster at the the controls of this just a-motoring down the court?

Could do wonders for their court vision.....

Chuck and Rocky, I want you to notice how I studiously avoided making any comments about vertically-challenged referees. I could've made some comment about how a normal-sized coach wouldn't need to stand on a chair if Rocky was on the crew. I could've easily said something about how a coach could set his water bottle on Chuck's head. It would be a piece of cake to add to JR's comments, like making sure the chairs Rocky and Chuck used had wheels on them, so they could get up and down the court quicker.

But, no, I avoided those easy comments. So you can direct any of your wrath directly at Jurassic and his stone bowels. Or was it bowls?

Stone balls?

You mean they're hard, dry, and lifeless? And how would Juulie know???

Now I'm mad at Padgett - he's obviously been sharing his meds with only part of the class.

Maybe JR really meant to say "Huevos no mas".

This would not be an automatic with me. It would depend on my relationship with the coach and how insistent a coach was about me moving. I would not rule out a T, but it likely would not be my first choice.

I did have a coach ask me to move one time and I just told him no and said to him, "If you want to see, you need to move. I am where I am supposed to be."

Peace

Juulie doesn't want to know, about the stone balls.

Juulie was talking about bowls -- the kind you set on the top of the rock so you can slurp the food out. In that situation, hard dry and lifeless is a good thing.!!

But that's what the people who live inside my head tell me to do.

I have studiously tried to ignore these post also, but I just don't have it in me to walk away from these types of negative comments and personal slurs...so my official response is:

"Dear Moderators, please remove the sarcasm priveleges of both Jurrasic Referee and M&M Guy as they have obviously overstepped the boundaries of good taste by choosing to attack fellow officials based soley on their height and not their officiating ability or ownership of correct officiating manuals."

And my unofficial reply:

"Hey...STFU!!!"

If it'll make you feel any better, you both suck as officials also.

And don't get me started on your spelling expertise, as well........

The real question is what stopped him at only two posts!
