Bad take...

I reffed when I was in high school and college. It was good money for me then. When I made a bad call I heard it from parents and coaches and I got better so I didn't get yelled at.

It’s the league rules, I believe, if you’re talking about Ute Conference.

Have you found that yelling at people is an effective way to improve behavior?

Actually I don't yell, but I absolutely disagree with people when it's appropriate...

When you have a kid that is a lock for the NFL, you do what it takes.

With all the crap that keeps happening, an all or nothing rule makes sense.

Our soccer league has a survey system that parents/coaches are strongly

It’s time to let this one go. Stop digging in deeper. You’re not winning this one

Is this a reverse? I’ve seen ridiculously crazy behavior at youth sports events

I was hopeful that it was a reverse until he started responding to other posts.

This take couldn’t be more wrong. You need to adjust what youth sports is about.

You're questionable ref take overshadows your HORRIBLE take on too many kids
