Hey, give the guy a break......
He just mastered that unsolicited criticism technique. What more can you ask for after 6 years? |

This would save you the embarrassment of representing your faulty rules knowledge on this forum for all the world to see. Is it soccer season yet?? |

For any new official reading that wasn't sure, the basket gets credited to team B in a footnote on the scoresheet. Never to any player. Only been that way...oh....forever. Lah me.... |

"Told her to count the basket, and put in a note that it was A2 who made the basket for team B."I don't think anyone else throught you were suggesting "crediting A2" with the score. :rolleyes: It is obviously better to have more detail in any note on an unusual situation. |

What he wrote was incorrect, rules-wise. Field goals scored in the wrong basket get credited to the team, not a player. He credited A2 with the score, even though the score was in the wrong basket. Players do not get mentioned in the footnote on the score sheet. It's that simple. And to be quite honest, I could care less what representing does. I wanted to make sure everybody else knew the correct procedure by rule. And to also be completely honest, I ain't about to to get into any stoopid, pointless argument with anybody over it either. |

And I'm one of the regular critics of representing in the forum. |

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with adding extra information to the footnotes in this situation. That's all he did. He didn't say to "credit" anything to anyone. I've shaken my head at my share of representing's posts, I just don't think this is one to jump on him over. By all means, add the clarification that it doesn't get "credited" to any player, however. |
Representing can attest to the fact I haven't been a big fan of his posts on this site, we'ev exchanged a few private emails about my thoughts on his status in the officiating world.
That said, I think this post has been a prime example of the "eating out young" post someone made a while back. The kid handled the situation and correctly and wanted to talk about it and some of our "brethren" attack him. What makes it even more ridiculous is that some among us are so eager to attack him and prove to the world their officiating superiority that you completely changed what representing said in the orginal post. He never once said he credited A2 with the score, only to make a note who scored the phantom points that would have shown up without being credited to any player on team B. It was only a clarification note, not crediting it to A2's stats. Some of you just amaze me sometimes with trying to impress others with your vast knowledge of this game, all the while proclaiming how you just "want to make sure others know the correct procedure." Good job this time representing, but I still hold to our previous conversations bro ;) |
