But that was not enough you. You needed to come into this thread and whack away with your hammer and point to every instance where you think I was wrong (which seems to include breathing) and then perform a psycho-babble of a post to make yourself feel better than you took five minutes of your day to understand why I'm objecting to people who aren't willing to understand the point of being a crew of officials. And then you have the audacity to tell me to back off after the way you tried to undress me here. It's as the cognitive dissonance shown here is to be seen as a joke. Unfortunately that isn't the case here. I'm glad that there was a video here shown where an Div 1 NCAA ref goes up to his partner and makes him reconsider the backcourt violation. He showed how calmly he approached his partner and allowed him to make the final call. Evidently, the people here think to do that is disrespectful. I appreciate that you told me this, but I disagree with it. And it seems that I have ruffled your feathers by saying that I disagree with you, which really isn't a surprise to me.

You seem to be doing a lot of "whacking away" yourself. First you tell me I don't know how AAU works. And repeatedly you've told other posters they don't know how communicate within the confines of this forum. Now to top it off, you make a completely assinine statement that all us of here think the Tom Izzo scenario was handled in a disrepectful manner. The Tom Izzo scenario and you scenario have nothing to do with each other. Plus, in the Tom Izzo play, we see for ourselves how it was handled; in your play we only have your side of the story, which gets modified every time you don't like a response.

What kind of pompous official thinks other officials don't know how AAU basketball works?

Because you think a bad call in one game isn't as severe as a bad call in another game. Which to me is an insensitive comment to the hard working parents who pay their hard earned money to then invest time during the week practicing to play the games on the weekends. Kids and families plan their lives around these games, and dismissing these games the way you did is a mark of unprofessionalism.

And still, that has nothing to do with the fact that you said, without knowing me, that I don't know how AAU works. You made a personal assessment of me, yet 1/2 your posts here complain about people making it "personal" towards you.

Further, there are some really great minds with tons and tons of experience on this blog who are generous with sharing their knowledge and experience. You may not agree with it all and yes some comments include tuff love but realize that its not personal and the goal behind the comments is to be helpful. |
