How would you have called this

This kind of attitude ought to keep you working freshman games for a long time.

Really? How do you figure? I work when I am open. Everything from V down to 5th grade (I like officiating basketball). Apparently you can't read. I said I should have done nothing in retrospect. I asked him if he wanted help...I didn't make him do anything. It wasn't me who said that I would need and ambulance after the game. It was some other poster.

It ought to, but from my experience it usually doesn't....

I never asked for anyone to agree with me. I believe I admitted I should have let it go. The only thing I questioned was someone saying I would need an ambulance after the game if I did that to them. Is that what you call positive feed back Bob? Or intimating that freshman games are all I will ever progress to. Or that crappy officials like me still slip through the cracks. Is that the high powered intellect you’re talking about Bob? There are a lot of really good officials on this site. Several of whom need to smell some of what there shoveling. At no point in this thread did I ever question anyone’s criticism. This was RE-DAM-DICULOUS.

Actually, you've gone back and forth from admitting you should have let it go to defending what you did by saying you were being compassionate. Your intentions may have been kind, but the results were not.
