Sounds like you have the same situation I have every night doing wreck ball. I just suck it up and do the games the best I can. The players will eventually figure out who's doing their job and who isn't...unless of course you're like me and get crap constantly because of your age no matter how bad your partner is.

I know guys who will request to work with me cause they are lazy and know they won't have to listen to any crap when they work with me , cause the players always harp on me.

Sorry to kinda hijack your thread, but I had a particularly brutal set of games last night and it got me started...

Rec ball is the epitome of "Get in, get done, get out." Sometimes you need to think hard of the ramifications before realizing you're not supposed to shoot your partner after the game.

And sometimes, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one. Do your fellow officials a favor, and pull the trigger on this one.

This is what Dr. Laura would call a moral dilemma.

It's been seven years since I worked a rec game.

Don't miss it a bit.
