Actually, receiving a "Shutup" comment around here is a good thing. Means you have actually made some good point or other that we can't argue about anymore. Now...

Shutup.:p

It can also be meant as a literal request.

Shut up.



Just saying....

Brings me up to my first varsity game this past tuesday.
Winning coach, overall upset, acting like a fool, pretty much belligerent with everyone. Crying for fouls, everything you can think of.

So i call a foul on his girl, for pushing.
Coach: "Where has that foul been all game, call a foul, call something, call a foul"
Me:" "
Coach: " "
Me:" "
I was being serious, im sure it sounded sarcastic, but he was pissed.

At the end of the game though, he comes over says good job followed by "Half the stuff I say i dont mean, just always talking"

See how much better that is?

You guys are the best crew we've seen this year (said in the first game of the season). :eek:

You're correct, but, it can be posted on You Tube:

When I first started school ball (read, non-rec), I was doing one of my first HS games for my new association at a local private school. After the game, my P and I were doing our post-game and the V officials were listening and providing feedback.

All of a sudden the door bursts open and the H (losing) Coach comes in and starts berating us - worst officials ever, yada yada. Totally going off. The seasoned V Officials ushered him out.

As a new official at the time I was devastated. Really hurt. Can I do this? Is this the way it's going to be? Do I have what it takes? Why go through this? etc.

I reported it to my Association - the Coach (new young guy in one of his first games) was disciplined and we got an apology from the school AD.

Thankfully, I had a few senior officials help me through it.

That was several years and several hundred games ago......and I stuck it out. But, it hurt and I'm not ashamed to admit it. It was part of my maturing process and is now just another situation for my personal kit-bag.

And some day, if not already, you'll/'ve pay/ed it forward, and be the veteran official.
