I think chseagle was my timer tonight

Don't worry Chseagle, some guys on here may say it is the student, but I think many are pretty lousy teachers! Hang in there and keep asking questions. If they don't like it hopefully they can resist the temptation to treat you in a in such a rude way.

I'm sure I'll take some heat for posting this, but I think someone needed to stand up for someone else on here! I know this site has been extremely valuable for me and has taught me a ton, and I'm very thankful for the years and years of experience that these guys have and all that they are willing to pass on. I only wish that some could do it in a more constructive and less degrading manner.

The guy won't listen. He won't accept answers & explanations from veterans with far more knowledge than I. He is constantly second guessing. He is a Yabut of the nth degree and deserves every bit of stick that comes his way.

Well said. Even as a neophyte basketball official, I am willing to help others with less knowledge. There comes a point though where this becomes a fruitless endeavor.

Upon further review....

You're right. Maybe we could try to be a little bit more tolerant...including myself (hard as it might be sometimes ).

Alright. What have you done with the real Jurassic Referee and how much ransom do you want to keep him?
