I really believe it is about the KID, one of our brother/sister officials. B82 found the rule,explanation before hand and just wants to take it out on the young official.

So right or wrong, we beat up people asking questions if they question an official's knowledge of the rules?

Not to worry. I looked much worse on a backcourt thread a few post back.

Sorry for bringing in a "pickup game" into this. If its better i will just lie and tell you that it was during league and the official missed the call..

I didn't really argue to much because i didn't know for SURE and gave up the ball. I have looked into officiating before because i have played organized ball for so long but when it comes to actually knowing the rules i find myself in aw in how much i really don't know.

The only reason the kid called anything was because the ball went near or above my shoulder. His definition of a carry was dribbling to high.



Btw, Those misunderstood rules, are they pretty accurate? Because I was wrong on a ton of stuff? I wish they would post these in most gyms so people could go to them if they have a question. It would at least take a down the % of uncertainty in a call.

Edit. Nevermind You have that exact list of rules on here already..
