Refereeing

This post has nothing to do with routers.

In my hockey game tonight, I had a conversation with the ref toward the end of the first period right before a face-off:

me: "Hey, you need to start calling more penalties. It's getting bad out here, someone's going to get hurt."
ref: "What things should I be calling?"
me: "Penalties."
ref: "You guys are falling down out there. It's hard to tell what's you falling and what a penalty."
me: "Um, it's your job to know the difference."

Then the ref called for another skater to take the face-off. Classy. I guess that's the kind of refs you get in the lowest league.

We lost 3-2 but we had a goal that went all the way in the net and bounced out that they didn't give us. The best part about hockey is no matter how bad the refs are, it's still fun and great exercise.
