RETIREDFAN1 reacted to gogo1734 in SETX Officiating - A Victim of an Official Shortage or an Epidemic of Incompetence
That’s like saying you shouldn’t be able to criticize a car salesman if you aren’t willing to become one. It’s just silly. I and many others don’t care if officials have another day job. We care about the job they’re doing as officials. I’m not a yeller and screamer at officials during a game. That’s the coach’s job. However, I leave games now more often than ever frustrated at the way a game is officiated. There’s no longer any consistency whatsoever. The post above talked about several rules we should all know. I couldn’t agree more with that part of his post. Although, the officials all call games according to the same rule book, you even see some of the simplest of calls officially drastically different from game to game. It shouldn’t be that way.

No one asked for NCAA officials for Jr high basketball games. My original post is only speaking on high school varsity basketball games. It’s not too much to ask for officials in a varsity game to be competent. As far as “respect” goes we had an official who approached a fan who he thought had been complaining (he had not but it was someone close by this particular man). The official told the man, “If you don’t shut the hell up I’m going to throw your fat ass out of here.” The man told the official, “it wasn’t me” and he was promptly thrown out of the gym. This was a 70+ year old man who was ejected from the gym for nothing. Officials laughing in the face of coaches and refusing to have a discussion with a coach about a call. That’s unprofessional and disrespectful. These things go both ways. Your attitude that any and every official should be able to do an extremely poor job without being questioned is absurd. If I was as poor at my job as some of these guys I’d have been fired years ago.

This years tournament hospitality room winner is the LC-M/IP Tournament.
The crawfish/crab etouffee was the bomb. Also the beef tips and rice and the smoked boudain was delicious.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to Hagar in Wokeism Comes to the Forum
I thought PC was bad. It made me a Trump supporter so you can imagine what Wokism has done. The fact that it’s being embraced by so many sends my value meter into an insane spin. It’s equivalent to a college chic dressing up in a vagina costume and condemning Trump for being crazy.
So here’s the big question. On 12:01 (00:01 military time) the morning of Jan 1st, will Biden know what year it is? Will his staff? Anyone in the White House other than a few Secret Service Agents? Pari-Mutual wagering will begin at Noon today. Win, Place or Show, Yes to any. Trifecta wagering, Get correct answer on all possibilities. Based on the voting and activities of the people, Caesar’s Palace will get rich on this betting. 😂😂😂👽👽👽😂😂😂

If you’re referring to me locking the Merry Christmas thread, you’re reaching.
It turned into anything but wishing others a Merry Christmas.

A Simple “Tongue in cheek” comment got attack. So wokism raises its ugly head in SETX. No wonder comedy is a dying art form. I won’t go into a rebuttal, for some fellow posters replied already. I will be happy to point out that the self-righteous folks who condemned the Locked thread never bothered to post a thread with the appropriate wishes.
Well my, my, my, why am I not surprised.

Sabine Pass would be favorited over WOS. I'm paying no attention to that win.
We need to win the tournament, then we'll see if they're turning the........smh......then we'll see if they're building on the game with BU.

RETIREDFAN1 reacted to Horton in Should UIL go to a three year stadium rotation for football state games?
Weather, weather, weather is why no one likes different locations. AT&T gives every team a chance. No wind, rain, or cold. Home field advantage would make sense IF the teams played all their home games there. The one time it was played at NRG, attendance was way down.
90 percent of the teams that make it to the championship prefer AT&T.
