crowd rushes court

chaseagle - I haven't been on this forum all that long but lurked for a while before joining. Based on some of the comments you make, I hope you never get the opportunity to officiate a game. From reading your posts I get the idea that the "power" woudl go to your head and you would be giving T's left and right, throwing people out of the gym, ejecting players and coaches, etc.

The game does not need officials like that. I have dealt with table personnel like you and it makes for a LONG night

Chseagle, MANY of your posts seem to focus on the most trivial things that officials, scorers, and others should NEVER worry about.

While reading some of your posts I have had the same thoughts. IE- I hope this guy never becomes a game official because he just does not seem to have the temperment or judgement required to be a good official.

JMHO.

I thought I had chseagle as a scorer in my game on Friday. Midway through the second quarter, I'm buzzed over to the table. Scorer says to me "Number 5's shirt is untucked and he was already warned about it." Number 5 also happened to be the visiting team's best player...

What did the scorer say when you removed him?

Wow, I would be hard pressed not to roll my eyes.

LMAO.

Exactly. With some table personell it's almost like you have to tell them, "Don't buzz us, we'll buzz you if we need something."

"Listen, Sparky, you don't see me coming over here and telling you what kind of pencil to use...."

I was asking about the fans rushing due to the teams having the inability to do the "good game" line thanks to the fans wanting to congratulate the players for winning & wanting to taunt the losing team at the same time.

RookieDude has seen me at the table as both Shot Clock Operator & Timer/Scoreboard, so technically he's the only one that can truly pass judgement.

Would that be a No. 2 up the rear or through the eye?

The "good game" line isn't required at the end of the game. I doubt the visiting team wants to participate if they lost the game in a fashion where the fans would be rushing the court.

You should ask yourself this, if this was unsporting, then why haven't you seen it called as such? Answer is because it isn't, and no official worth a grain of salt would call it as such. To do so would end any more relevant games he/she would receive.

Concerning security at NCAA Athletics, the average ratio is between 1 security to 100 fans to 1 security to 2,000 fans depending on the venue & the game.

As long as the security personnel are properly trained & aware anything is possible as long as they plan ahead for any situation.

I was also curious as to why it's a trend in NCAA Athletics, yet rarely seen in HS & Pro Athletics.

You, sir, obviously don't officiate in Massachusetts.

Constipated mathematicians work it out with a pencil.
