By the way. I just want to compliment all those on this board for your professionalism in keeping the discussion
centered on refereeing and how we can all improve. (mostly)
If you have checked the "other" board lately, it's become a bad joke!
Keep up the good work.

Drake,
yeah.
I do this thing for fun.
If it ain't fun I won't.
The "other" isn't fun.

It's unfortunate, but I agree. I still look in and read some of the threads, if they seem interesting, but I don't spend much time there. Additionally, I never mention this board when I post on that one. It's very sad, actually. I found McGriff's board a long time ago and I learned a lot over there. But it's degenerated badly.

It's like they're the House of Representatives and this board is the Senate. A little more subdued debate over here.

Chuck

Chuck, I'm glad you haven't mentioned this board over there. I don't want this one to degenerate to what that one has become. I've only been there a couple of times, but wasn't impressed at all.

Actually, that "other board" is very good during the winter basketball season. It's just during the slow times that it degenerates into a slugfest. Lest we get too smug, there are a couple of "regulars" on this board that have contributed to the degeneration of that other one too.

Mick,

Your contributions are good on both boards. I hate to burst your bubble, but you aren't contributing to any degeneration. :-) You are going to have to work harder.

You guys are all correct. I stopped posting on that board months ago when it became even more juvenile.

That's what happens when people can post without registering.

Padgett,
If you, or I, leave anywhere, the place we left, by definition, becomes more juvenile.

Before you jump on Mick for sounding arrogant, he was not referring to wisdom, but age. I, for one, was born before dirt was invented.

Wasn't I, JR?
