Can't seem to get Thursdays done around here

[Texas Aggie]

It gets even more strange. Various varsity contests have been affected by the Thursday nights I speak of (when they were played or scheduled -- usually due to sharing of facilities), but Fridays have been largely unaffected. Not tonight. That 3rd V game I spoke of above? Cancelled. Picked up a rescheduled V game tomorrow but even that's no guarantee now.

By tomorrow, I may have been paid for more games I didn't work so far this year than those I have worked! No joke.

(And no wisecracks!!)

So now the schools are paying you NOT to officiate their games?!

Had a 30 min. delay to the start of a game on Tuesday. During that period another team took the field to run wind sprints. (They weren't scheduled to play, just practice that day.) How stupid! I wouldn't want that liability on me. I relayed the problem to the AD. Hopefully, it will be addressed.

When I told the coaches of the 30 min. delay, they weren't happy. I wish coaches took the hazards seriously. I hope it doesn't take some kid getting fried to wake them up. I have no problem with the delay because I have concern for safety on my side.

I am officially on board with the black pants. Yesterday, the make up game happened in a mini-monsoon. The rain wasn't too bad (needed some windshield wipers every now and then), but the field was flat and became saturated. That = mud. All over us. However, the game was good and I felt we did a solid job.

Now, I have to go clean everything up. Yuck.
