troutangler Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 There are no such things as "Valley refs" (In reference to the "rinky dink" town comment) or "A-10 refs". Referees that work in the Valley work in the Big 10, Big 12, Sun Belt, etc. Referees that work in the A-10 work in the Big East, ACC, etc. as well.

JMM28 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Okay, I'll take a stab at it. It's not a complete work, by any means, but I just threw this together. “GAME OVER,” said Basketball Country upon reading the foreclosure notice. Slack jawed, he stared out the kitchen window into the courtyard, contemplating his next move. In just a matter of hours, the sheriff would be knocking on his door and the double-wide currently sitting on lot 23-B of the Terre du Carbon Mobile Home Park would officially become property of Soy Bank & Trust. But the foreclosure wasn’t his most pressing problem; he needed to get this place **** and span before the sheriff arrived, or he'd be headed back to the slammer – no small task, for sure. But thousands of empty Sudafed boxes don’t just throw themselves away, and what in the hell would he do with all these empty ammonia tanks? God damn, he thought, why did LuAnn have to die in that explosion... The gravity of the situation bearing down on him, he began to think about just how he got himself into this mess. It seemed like only yesterday that he made that uncontested layup, the one that beat Red Bud at the buzzer to win state. They still talk about that game to this day. As a high schooler, roundball was his only escape from the bleak reality of life in Carbondale, taking precedent over everything, especially his schoolwork. But once that magical senior season ended, it seemed like no one had any use for him anymore. Disillusioned with the game he loved and the townsfolk who had quickly turned their attention to the up-and-coming hot-shot sophomore point guard who held prospects of hardwood glory, he answered the siren song of methanphetamine... Time for this to come back to the front of the pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOSLU68 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 beautiful. Jimbo that was great. Did it take long to prepare that or did you do it during recess? If we could get back to the thread when was the last time a player told the ref he had double dribbled as per CR tonight. That was really classic as that ref was really mailing it in all night. If Fordham always draws that ref they will never win again and some people are going to the hospital-this game had lots of fouls other than the stupid 5 calls on CR I would discount half of the steals in the game as really being fouls.

billiken_roy Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 back to the original topic of this thread, " refs, we should keep track of who is good and who is not" we should consider ourselves lucky that we got joe demayo in a game that was a gimmee. hopefully we have done our demayo punishment we wont be subjected to his work the rest of the year.
