Am I one of the few?Voice of Reason wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2017 1:21 pm Sounds like a few people should try to get their officiating license. As an ex-official, I always felt that jr high games and games of lower skill level were the toughest to officiate. They tend to be sloppy and physical. I've seen both SW and Burg play, and both are solid teams. I also have seen the officials of which you speak, and neither one is from SW... They also call a solid game for the Jr High level. I talk to 2-3 people who were at the game the other night, who have no stake in it, and neither mentioned the officials. Should be a fun rematch.
I agree. I watched what I thought was the best crew around tonight...I thought a couple of them had off nights and went more for the visiting team. They didn’t decide the game and I don’t believe for one minute any one of them tried to affect anything. I wasn’t greatly happy with them tonight but hope they are in our gym doing games as much as possible.Voice of Reason wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2017 2:30 pm Ironman
No... I was referring specifically to the Burg/SW game. Of course officials have bad nights and can influence a game, but I also know that there are slim pickings on good officials. I just suggest to anyone that sees it as a real issue to find a way to make a positive difference.
Why are you an ex official? Those guys that were mentioned get paid to do a job. They should do it well or get someone else. My guess is you probably weren't very good either thus an ex official taking up for yrs of incompetenceVoice of Reason wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2017 1:21 pm Sounds like a few people should try to get their officiating license.

Or I could have a job with a schedule that isn't conducive to officiating.JonWudden wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2017 10:54 amWhy are you an ex official? Those guys that were mentioned get paid to do a job.

Good win. Chillicothe is a different type matchup...they have lost several games but a legitimate team8383838383 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2018 7:14 pm Waverly over Chillicothe 45-33. Good close game. Waverly pulled a decent lead in the 3rd and kept it till the end.
He certainly is.8383838383 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2018 9:59 pm Chillicothe has grown in size and strength since last year. It was a back and forth game until late in the third. Very good team. Jaden Cain is very quick.
