I wasn't sure who said it...I knew the general area where it came from. We all know in the PC world we live in, like it or not, it is not the same when when the gender roles are reversed. I am sure that everyone in the student section will think twice about doing it again. We all handle situations different, there isn't one big band-aid for all situations.

I've never heard such an announcement (not saying it's not true, just that it helps explain some of the comments you're getting)

Around here, it would take at least 4 years to live down threatening to remove the student section for something as lame as that. You'd definitely never live it down at that school as long as you do games there.

Did the fan leave the stands and enter the court? NO! Worry about officiating the game and not some high school boy making a pass at a high school girl. Your attitude makes me think you officiate high school soccer. Get over yourself. MTD, Sr.

I have to agree with the masses, Goodwill. That comment certainly will get someone in trouble at most workplaces, but let that school teach the kid a lesson about our good friend "sexual harrassment." We sports officials need only concern ourselves with genuine threats and violence (both physical and verbal). I don't think "Hey cutie" qualifies.
What's your motivation behind this comment, Mark? |

Was there some kind of unsportsmanlike comment made in there somewhere? Was there some kind of hostility behind the "Hey, you're a cutie" comment? You went way overboard on this one, imo. You can disagree with that opinion if you want to, but things like this really give officials the proverbial black eye. |

I didn't yell across the floor I didn't it very respectfully with game management right there so only the student section could here me and then we continued the game, no more than a thirty second delay.
