Watch Those Arms...
In my mind, this was an easy call. However, because of the stink that was raised over it...I'm going to ask.

I've looked and looked and looked at this question. I don't see how the answer could be what it is.

Cancel or Continue???
A short while back I posted something about a ref calling off a game in the 3rd period due to unruly players. Several of you gave good advice, which I put to use and as a league we decided to back...

I reffed a game last night and saw a play I don't think I've ever seen before on any level. A1 starts to drive the lane. B1 has perfect position to take the charge (he was standing about 4 ft away...

I won't go into how pathetic our situation is here, but needless to say we have a lot of work to do before we can ever call our league "decent". During a game this weekend, one of the new refs went...
