That's pretty personal, public and provocative - would that be a red or a yellow?I'm going to lick you from head to toe

striker14 said:I got yellowed once because I got knocked down hard...I was on my knees (insert joke here)...I slammed my hands on the ground in frustration, not in any general direction, and said "COME ON!!" and that was it...TWEET...yellow card!
it's a joke...I could go on and on and on and on...............
trece verde said:Yes, the refs come out with this statement every year (and yes, the mens' league refs give the same speech at the beginning of our games too), just like your team managers all get email from the leagues with the same message: "we have decided to crack down on foul language on the field."
striker14 said:I may be waaaaaaaay outta line saying this, but, the Referee's we get can be considered "sloppy second's" because the Men's League doesn't want em'...they don't want to Referee kids, so, they come and Ref us, which makes them feel high and mighty I suppose so when we swear, they can pull the high and mighty on us and it makes them feel better about themselves...that's the only explanation I have...really!
Plus...I don't think we have a Referee younger than 50 in our League, do we?

Spazz said:In women's they are more strict than men's and that's not fair! Surprised they don't make us play in skirts and have tea at halftime!
Wings said:Question for anyone from Shock - Any word on how many games your girl who got red is out for?? I'm not trying to stir up any shite, I'm just curious.
striker14 said:I call bull shite on that one...sorry...as if the men get this speech...come on!!!! are you kidding me? And, if they are, where is the follow up?!! I was just at a game last week, where I shite ya not...my ears were bleeding after due to the language and not ONCE were the players spoken to...so, I call bull shite!!
trece verde said:All of this happens because we're paranoid about losing our field allotments. It's hard enough getting a field to play on let alone a decent one, without losing it because somebody with Tourette's lets fly every 3 minutes in front of a sideline full of impressionable 12 year olds and their parents...
