referees in lonestar

One even fancies himself an entertainer or rodeo clown.......dancing on the field, kicking up his heels, and in general acting goofy!  I would much rather he conserve his energy for the game.  He probably would not miss so many interesting things!!!

I hope you guys aren't talking about my Vidor friend who refs. He keeps it interesting during a boring game.

        there isn't to many who act like that so I suppose it is your friend.

  I dealt with him last year and it was worse every game.

there are alot of good referees out there.we had some in STJFL that were in Bridge city the frist weekend and they were great. I have good ones and I have had bad ones.But remember coaches if we run them all off then just think what the games would be like without them.

Good point! No matter what game you play, we need officials to regulate the game.  They are not perfect like us ;)

I just wish the guy would stop entertaining and do more ref'ing.  He does the same thing at the kids basketball games and it gets ridicules after a while.  He holds the game up trying to get laughs in the stands.  Overall, this year they have not be really bad like they were last year in Lonestar... There was a guy last year that would just throw his flag randomly if a kid said he was being held.  I asked him if he saw it and he said no.  He ended up waiving off the flag.  Scary thing was he was the crew leader in several of our games.  He was a mess.

    • But it's not a stretch... we have 7 that could go 7 innings. Not saying that it will happen but no reason to lie about it either. We have some great pitching on this team and have had 7 or more go 7 innings this season.
    • From the article:   "In a rare move, all three liberal Supreme Court justices recused themselves on May 28 from a case involving a lawsuit filed against them for rejecting a previous lawsuit that sought to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. In the case, the Supreme Court turned away a longshot bid by Raland J. Brunson of Ogden, Utah, who has gained notoriety among Trump supporters for his legal activism. The case at hand is known as Brunson v. Sotomayor. The petitioner sued Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson in their official capacities for voting on Feb. 21, 2023, to deny the petition for certiorari, or review, in his previous lawsuit, Brunson v. Adams." This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up
    • Funny how “MAGA” is considered a bad thing…. The MAGA crowd….etc…. Whoever doesn’t want to make America Great should leave. 
    • That's an interesting take, but considering that an incumbent enjoys a HUGE advantage historically, I think Covey came pretty close to an upset. I don't care one way or the other - the biggest reason being that I live in Hardin County. But I have to think the Trump endorsement got Covey that close in the first place. His only recognition was on a very local level, virtually unheard of before the Trump endorsement. Otherwise, he probably would've lost by thousands of votes instead of a few hundred. Just my observation.
    • I think the interesting point is this… Trump backed candidates do better when Trump is on the ballot. Back in March Covey was up by 3%, and that skirt from Jasper pulled about 10%… and most people believed that her voters would go directly to Covey. Conventional wisdom was that Covey would be up by 10-12 points if all things went according to the pattern from March. That just didn’t happen. Typically turnout is lower in runoffs than in the primaries, and my guess is that Phelan had fewer votes this time around than last, but covey had WAY fewer votes. A friend of mine has been watching a similar runoff in central texas, and the results were similar. The MAGA guy just didn’t turn out the votes this May.    My opinion is that a large portion of the support these Trump guys are just that…. Trump supporters. They’ll vote down ticket according to MAGA directives when Trump is on the ballot, but when they can’t vote Trump, they just don’t show up at all.
