I have a FB/JVB set tonight.

Great game last night! Down to the buzzer! Two forth quarter intentional fouls (some of the easiest calls I've ever made) and a T after a foul on a 3-point shot, for the ole yanking the shirt out of the pants (5 shots and the ball).

PS - Coach asked me, what did he say, "I said, coach, he yanked his shirt completely out of his pants - automatic T." Coach looked at the player and said, "That's the second time in two weeks." After the game, coach said, "Man, I had him do 25 laps last time." Wonder what he has in store this time.......

Big time chirpers in a MS game :eek: Wish I could work THAT game with you!

As far as "and one" goes, "sorry coach I only wear Nike."

Tripleheader for me. JH Varsity (aka freshman) boys at 4, JH JV (aka 8th grade) at 5, HS JV at 6:30. School 5 miles from my house, which is nice. $121 cha-ching!

Three youth games tomorrow, almost certain to be cancelled by storm moving through the Northeast.

Yeah - they've been so accurate so far.

BTW - we might get some more rain. :D

Time to curl up with a warm fire and read some good fiction.........maybe a global warming tale?

Lake County, IL
 
Oh the memories of Chicago snow storms and the games go on....

My worst one, I worked just west of OHare and had a game at Warren Twp in Gurnee at 7pm. I left the office at 3 pm for a 40 mile drive. I just made tip off at 7:10 due to the Sophmore game going long. Big wreck at Lake Cook road and again at Rt 60.

I don't miss the traffic one bit but do miss the Cubs!

I've actually got a rare, Fri. evening girl's game with a team from the Chicago area. The weather's fine down here in central IL; I hope the other team makes it down here.

Yes, Grune, can you elaborate on this auto-T situation?

One boys freshman game tonight. Good thing is that we make game fee + $15 if we work a single game. Add mileage and it'll be over $70 for one game.

Three freshman boys tournament games tomorrow.

Really! When's the last time the White Sox won the World Series. When's the last time anyone on the Cubs could even spell World Series?
