The inexperienced partner may be under the bus but I think someone else is under the bridge.

Fan: "Hey ref, you suck!"
Ref: "No, I blow... & so do fans come to think of it ) I don't get it? sounds pretty much NOT good either way.

Asking for clarification on how he "overruled" his partner in a way that generated "applause" from the fans is NOT trolling. However, accusing someone of trolling can itself be trolling, since the definition of trolling is to post Quote:

Actually come to think about it you should be offended. Right now everyone in the country seems to be offended about something so you should be too. Now I've got to try and figure out what I'm offended about. Oh, I know- I'm not making enough for anyone to want to limit my bonuses or income. Darn, that is offensive.

stuck in the dualies?
As a noobie a few years ago, I was working 2-man women's SP. With a runner on 1B I was shading 2B. Batter hit a liner up the middle which F8 came in on quickly and made a throw to 2B for the force.
I couldn't get inside quick enough without impeding the progress of F4 or the runner from 1B, so I sorta just trailed her into 2B. F4 took the throw from F8 while reaching to the SS side of the base. The throw was there 3 steps before the runner, who I called out. In between innings, my PU came out to whisper to me and asked if I needed glasses. Shocked, I asked why. "That last play, the second baseman was off the base by 3 feet." So I didn't feel too good about that. But I wondered why the runner going to second didn't complain or ask me to check with PU. I was still lamenting the bad call after the game, but my mentor just chalked it up to "that's softball - don't worry about it". So I didn't get thrown under the bus, just mentally crawled under it myself. So now I try a little harder to anticipate such a play. It is a bit harder on some of those, especially in the SP game where the infielders often play short fielder, and I need to be behind them. Even worse for the men than women. Ted |
