I Couldn't Hold His Whistle (See First Law Of Officiating) ...
 

Did you really think that you would get actual plays, and rulings, with the thread title, "Sand In My Shoes"?

Stand up act? You haven't seen a stand up act until Mark Padgett recovers and gets back full time on the Forum. Then, and only then, will you see a stand up act. And be sure to tip your waitress.

Remember the Stand By Me movie scene where............

Yes.

Yes he does.:D

Does this mean then that you are solely the back up act to Padgett?? If so then why are we paying a cover charge when you are not the featured act ?????

Gee, now I'm sorry I've never seen this Academy Award winning film. :rolleyes:

One of my favorite movies of all time.

Close Second . . .
 

. . . behind the all-time classic "Killer Clowns from Outer Space" for me.

In keeping with thread theme, we would've had sand in our shoes had they not cleaned up after this one:
Local school district with very successful basketball program passed a millage that allowed them to refinish their gym floor. Drab-colored accumulations of finishes applied since '73 or so resulted in a dingy, yellowish/brownish, depressingly gloomy color. Sanding process yielded the natural wood hidden layers and layers below.
Dropped by to see it the other day. Looks like a nice, newly installed floor, bright and exciting now.
New bleachers helped.
Now, if they only would have gotten rid of the hockey-style scoreboard hanging from midcourt, the rehab would have been complete. Makes it difficult-to-impossible for last second shot monitoring by trail in two-person.
At least it will have the feel of a grand spanking new gym floor for a while to come.

I'm convinced you all need to follow Snaqwells and take up football to keep you occupied in the fall. ;)

I actually work soccer in the fall, but since I don't know any of the rules, I don't go to their threads........ I am just here to help BM get to 10, 000 posts.

Maybe we will have a few fall leagues starting up soon were we can talk plays......

St. Elmo's Fire
 

Actually if you wanna talk classics. I was an extra in St. Elmo's Fire back in the mid 80's. Not because of my stunning good looks though........

Are you saying you're a coach then? :D

Too Young To Read An Analog Clock ???

We actually used a scoreboard like this, over thirty years ago, in one of our schools. After they finally got a modern scoreboard, they left the old one hanging in a corner, for nostalgia reasons, until they finally took the antique down a few years ago. Too bad.

Secret Handshake ???
 

Is that when I become an esteemed member? Do I get a "Fashion Police" badge, and a secret decoder ring?
