[PearOrchardPanther74]

[BMTSoulja1]

Please please do. Little SWC stories slways need to be told.

Not exactly sure of the year. I'm thinking around 2004. But png and Ozen squared off in week 10 at Cardinal Stadium to decidethe final playoff spot. If png won, ned would make the playoffs and ozen was out. If Ozen won, they were in and Central was out. Let's just say the last few seconds of that game still leave a BITTER taste in many folks mouth whenever it's brought up...lol

[PearOrchardPanther74]

PNG was in no matter the outcome btw...

[Pepper Brooks]

I have seen a lot of hs football over the yrs. I have witnessed a lot of bad calls, no calls, and good calls. I have never witnesses blatant cheating. Basketball now that is a different story (Bmt Hebert vs Silsbee 1979)

Lmbo... Did the refs ice players, sabotage air conditioner units, and postpone games due to lightening storms?

Nah, I said my piece few years ago, I dont wanna have to ban myself. Hell they handed a share of the district title to Midland that night in Midland smh. Most blanted piece of…….. Nevermind man.

I think every ref has a team preference, rather they admit it or not. You can tell one by the obvious calls that won't get call, or the makeup call to try and throw you off. And then when it comes to fans, hell refs are always the reason a team lost.

[gary-us-bonds]

You knew I had to get in the obligatory shot.

[PNG Proud]

As far as the Ozen/PNG game went,  I don't think the refs "cheated"... they just couldn't make a decision, or didn't know the rules!

Wow. How has this thread not taken off yet......

people are scared.......

Cheat is a strong word. I think they "modify" their decision making process especially when it gets close to getting on that playoff schedule.

[NDNation]

Refs are human to....that's all I'm going to say. :ph34r:

[HurricaneCal]

I officiated basketball in the Corpus area back in 97-00 and I can say sometimes you get caught up in the game or anticipate the call. Plus you could honestly almost call a foul on every play. You try to do some preventative officiating to get some game flow going, but it ain't easy. I always tried to be in position to make the call, but I missed a lot.

[mytwocents-28]

people are scared.......

i guess so.

[fox]

i guess so.

don't worry they will be here during season CRYING about every call that did not go their way.

I think for the most part people think the refs do a decent job. When you go to different places it's probably the norm to feel you're getting the short end of the stick on questionable calls. This should help though.

Crosby lost to CE King by 7 on Crenshaw last year. Look at the pic of Duran making one of the top 5 catches of the year for us last year that wasn't. Should Crosby fans feel cheated we lost by 7 and there was a clear TD/reception at the 1 yard line that wasn't awarded? Call was that he caught it but he was out of bounds.

Dayton fans feel the same way, when McBride scored on back to back plays in Crosby, but that one paticular ref ruled him down at the goal line both times.

I have ref'd a couple of youth games and I must admit sometimes I just got caught up in the game watching.
