I think everyone needs a beer oir bubbly beverage of choice right now. I though my thread on a Camera coke can was bad, this one may be worse.

Remember, it's a game. Nobody is trying to win a pile of coin or out to kill someone.

Personal experience:

There are good refs and bad refs, just like there are good players and bad players. I've seen my home fields refs be really good some days, and sometimes really bad (like the last big game).

Speedball refs are hit and miss at a big game setting. The good ones have a level head and a sense of humor. The bad ones are the hardcore "AGGlets" that believe Smart Parts is the bible and Oliver Lang is their divine lord.

Please don't sweat the little things. Ref's will make mistakes, even the really good ones will make a bad call. Thank them for the 100 good calls they made rather than the one bad call they make. I'm very thankful for refs, even when they pee me off at times.

I think this thread needs a 24 houir cool off period and needs to be closed down for a day or so. Mods...
