Hey Hickory, there are over two pages of you complaining about the ref, here is page one:


Re: Re: No Sense (reply)
Doesnt seem that hard does it, Ryder? Still say this league should look for some "retired" players to ref, pay them a decent wage....and you would not believe the difference. Want some accloids and recognition?...try putting something besides "proper ... The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line

... player...be it the way they lay the stick on someone, or a high hit, or a hit with the stick up high....sometimes just a habit that that player has developed that the ref picks up on. However, other than that Ori thing, didnt think he did too bad of a job. The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line

Re: Do Blindmen.... (reply)
... would take charge of the reffing in this league. DePuke is one of the very worst, and I dont think he could ever make a good ref. Like yes, maybe some of those holds, hooks, etc. etc. were penalties, but man if you are going to call them, call them both ... The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line

Re: Strengths? (reply)

CLASSIC EXAMPLE (reply)
In the Bulls game last night, all goals cept for one PP! Gonna have to rename this game to the "see what you can do short handed" game....or "who is the ref gonna let win this game before he runs out of air?" Good "team plays" are gonna be a rarity. The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line

Re: Eagles vs. OKC (reply)

Re: So, we now have video review? (reply)
It appears we finally do have video review, Mary....and hallelujia for that! And kudos to the ref for having the nads to ask to see it. I will never forget the sick feeling of the "poor call" that costs one team to win and another to lose a great ... The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line

Re: So, we now have video review? (reply)
If that is fact, then I am really sorry to hear it. Someone should tell Travis as he distinctly said the ref was watching the replay. Something not adding up. I really, really wish that the replay was available. The league has a copy of a tape of the game ... The Swamp-Home Of The 4th line
