In the 3rd quarter she was chasing an opponent down the floor, ran into a screen that was set "all day long" and dropped like a rag doll thrown against the wall.
The only call was, "Time!"

Allowing overtimes violates the second rule of officiating. And - we all know what the first rule of officiating is. BTW - the third rule is "Coaches have a shorter leash than a puppy".

What do you mean by “Allowing” overtime? How can a ref determine overtime or not? Besides, who cares? I look at overtime as kind of a bonus to ref an extra 4 minutes. I enjoy a tight, well fought battle.

Vinski and IREFU2,
It's very nice that you take officiating so seriously and professionally.
Keep up the good work !

Mick, is that your polite way of saying lighten-up ?
I know you guys are kidding. Our season hasn't started yet and I'm busting to get a game in. So, I guess I'm a little owly.

Hey Padgett, you missed your cue. He said "owly" (possibly meaning 'owlish').

It's not a job.
It's an adventure.

It's pretty easy, actually.

That said....

It's a running joke.

During pre-game, I always tell my partner, "If this game goes into overtime, it's your fault!"
