Shot goes in, then push foul. How often?

Can someone sum up what RandyBrown is arguing this time? How did a simple thread with a simple question and answer grow to...this?

Because people keep trying to argue with this clown instead of just giving him an answer and then telling him that's what it is and if he doesn't believe it, piss off. You can't argue with someone who doesn't understand what you're telling him.

I want to see Randy do a Varsity game and see how long it takes for him to answer a question from the coach.

Hate to hear his Captain's Meetings.

I mean we (the forum) have had our fair share of arguments and back and forths...but I would figure if someone had that much to type on the subject then there must be something of substance in the post...or maybe not. I mean there's something to be said about getting to the point and being succinct. For all I know, the very answers to life's mysteries could be contained in those novels but I sure ain't gonna be reading it.

Believe me, you're not missing anything, including life's mysteries. None of his posts involve any actual rules citation. Just a bunch of "dazzle them with bullsh!t" stuff that will get him blackballed as soon he deals with a real HS Varsity coach, or even a decent AAU coach.

My son and I thank you for the laugh. Good stuff!

All but my first post in two separate threads have been responses to others' responses to me. The primary reason they are so relatively long is I try to support what I say, otherwise it's just, "You're wrong! No, you're wrong!", and, if someone thinks I'm wrong, I'd like them to see where I'm coming from so that they can point to where I'm wrong, specifically. If I'm responding to numerous members and/or numerous points in a single post, that tends to elongate the post, which is why I separate it by who I am responding to and/or by point. As far as substance, I can only do what I can do.

So, what do you think of POE #1? Where are they coming from, and who is behind it--and why? What are we doing wrong, and what do we need to change, specifically? Who among us are they talking to--obviously, to generate their reaction, it must be fairly pervasive, no?

POE #1 is for those officials who don't know how to read the rule book, interpret it, then apply that rules knowledge on the court. It's also shorter than 90% of your nonsensical posts.

Never argue with a _______. He'll drag you down to his level and beat you with experience every time.
