[QUOTE="CUZ, post: 366481, member: 4301"] Wow! Ref'ing basketball games has got to be one of the more thankless jobs. There's 10 people out there all trying to get away with as much as possible and only 2 or 3 people trying to police them. And then everyone in the gym has a different viewpoint on what is a foul and what isn't, what is palming and what isn't, what is a walk and what isn't and of course exactly how long 3 seconds lasts. A friend who had ref'ed but quit so he could watch his daughter play had the best lines I've heard. If we were at home he'd say to the ref "we're home so we want all the calls" and if we were away he'd say to the ref "we're on the road so you've got to help us out with some calls". Of course the refs would always smile at him and the rest of us would get a chuckle. Anyway, I don't know whether to congratulate you on your failing eyesight, hearing loss or Alzheimers, but whatever works for you congrats. :) Keep up the good work 'cause they can't play the game without you.
