My friend’s friend’s friend said mlittle is not guilty (this one time)
I found it easier to just agree to everything that everyone says on here.
Likely excuse. :lol:

But that'll never stand up in court. :mrgreen:
I agree

Just focus on getting better at your job and block out the nonsense, you’re professionals. If getting yelled at by passionate fans causes you that much grief then hang up the sneakers and do something else with your time. After reading that letter from ohsaa I’m making it my personal mission to yell at refs even more


Here’s another thought. Maybe parents are worse and it’s because the quality of the officiating has gotten so bad. Maybe the letter should read OHSAA letter to officials.

I’d love to see officiating be assigned to one fan from each side of the crowd before tip off.

The technical fouls seem extreme. When they call a technical, they had better make sure the call is against the right team. The officials have a hard enough job as it is. Now you want them watching the stands to see who is yelling so they can maybe miss a call on the court.

This is basically what is happening now. The only difference is ohsaa is collecting their $60 first. I’m sure if someone was there to collect the money from the fan then the ohsaa would probably be fine with it.
