[Dude]

Since when does the name of a sissy NHL trophy have anything to do with proper grammar?

And, for the ump-teenth time: you're, not your.

You make yourself look dumber and dumber every time you post. Go back to your rubber room.

Out of the rubber room

well being canadian I thought you "Dude" of all people would know proper hockey terms. Guess not, back to ringette for you!


What soccer team are you from?

 

[Fastshow]

no!!!!!

Go back to your rubber room.

Don't go!! Stupid people are the new black.

Carry on posting, Defiling the net (that's a good one, that).

It's the only way you're going to learn.

Dude just believes in tough love, he's a pussy (cat), really.



Plus, he's not getting at home and he's wife knocking on a bit if you know what I mean.......

 

[Dude]

And back to the abortion pail for you. Whoever let you crawl out was under the influence.

 

[Dude]

Fasty: go to sleep already!

 

[PNE]

Sorry lads , I can't comment too much on referee reports or decisions that the discipline committee makes. All I can say is that I believe a send - off for violent conduct is an automatic 3 game suspension (minimum). Depending on what is written in the report & how 'violent ' it was , more games may be added.

 

[Big T]

I think Stepchild has a point...why have the hearing if you have already made a decision ?? It's just stupid......the league changed the rules this year saying that the player must present himself before the committee or he shall be suspended indefinitely....why ? So they can waste an evening of your time waiting, and then have them lecture you like a 4th grader and give you the sentence before saying a word ??? Fcuking stupid !!!

If you have automatic suspensions then just post the fcuking thing on the website and be done with it.....take the money from the team bond and all is settled......if you're going to have a hearing then let the player make his case...I have been in there a couple of times and it's stupid, cause it has no bearing on the suspension.

PS - the bolded words are learning markers for Defiling the Net...plus I don't want any trouble from the grammar nazi Dude

Instead of pushing over the two guys involved why didn't you just take your team mate out of the situation. By getting involved what do you think the ref should but down in his report.

"violent conduct " is a vague and somewhat damning phrase. We would all agree that there are varying degrees of violence on the field and this policy of 3 games if the ref writes "violent" doesn't leave a lot of room for a reasonable account of the events and the flexibility to use judgement to assign the proper games.
The refs have to enforce an acceptable standard of safe conduct, and the yahoos must be sent the message, but 3 automatic games for what could be a brief pushing match seems a bit much.


PNE, a player from our team just got 2 games for an incident that was violent but really just "pushy"...so I'm not sure how that matches up to your 3 game notion.

Not an easy job.

I think most guys aren't happy with missing games but I guess that's the incentive to behave oneself.

red card

i just finished sitting out a couple, i agree to disagree with the refs, first i dont want to do his job but second they are getting paid some decent cash, im sure alot of this bull@#it that happens could be prevented if the refs stayed with the play and called things that they really see, i see these guys letting things go all game, and then what happens is the game gets out of hand and refs starts calling things to make up for mistakes he made earlier in the game, by this time its too late and everyone is pissed off, and the only defense the ref has is to pull out the cards,


hey if your getting paid just run with play, makes it easier on everyone

 

[whistle blower]

I must admit some ref's don't keep up with the play. Some ref's work just as hard on the field as players, look at pne he does more running than half the team put together. As for the money we don't get it for doing nothing, rain or shine we are out on the park taking crap from people who don't understand the laws. Just think what would happen if the game was played without the ref to keep some kinda order in the game....

 

[PNE]

WB ,
Don't forget , I am Turbo-powered. That gives me the extra thrust when setting -off.
Anyway , what beer are we having Saturday night. You have some catching up to do since you missed last saturday. See you tuesday ,

It's Lady Byng moron; and your teaching everyone on here about grammer?

Don't confuse GrammAR with spelling, they are two distinctly different parts of the English Lanquage.

If it wasn't noted previously Referees don't determine the length of suspension, but the wording in their report can dictate in some fashion the severity. The discipline group is made up primarily of ex and current referees however.

As for those saying referees don't keep up with the play, try doing a game. Refs need to watch the ball, the play occuring at or near the ball, plus look ahead for potential offsides, while also looking behind the play to watch for fouls that occured after a ball was released.....Perhaps linesmen should be given more power signal the ref's and clear things up..... Out of the 9 ref's I have had so far this year 7 have done a good job, and thats a good batting average for a league that competes for ref's.

My $50 is well spent.

(except when we get that ref named Z____)

 

[TheRob]

We've had that Z guy a couple of times this year and I thought he did OK. Herb on the other hand. WTF?

PNE,

Good game on Sunday(LUFC - Sporting). I especially liked the way you were running on the spot to stay warm. Now, why wasn't the bugger who chopped me down early in the second half shown a card. Just curious.

 

[blindman]

Having just had to sit on the other side of the disciplinary table (as a coach representing a dismissed player) I understand a team's/players perspective/frustration with discipline. As a blindman I am going to be very careful not to relate this to any specific case so I don't get in trouble but I still think I can make some constructive points without crossing that line.
I believe that the pendulumn on discipline has swung over the past five years from suspensions that were once way too lenient to suspensions that are now SOMETIMES on the harsh side. I think the biggest reason for this is that the discipline policy (now something most lawyers would be proud of at 48 pages long) takes away the use of common sense from disciplinary committees and instead holds them to firm minimum suspensions based on the category (not necessarily the severity) of the offense. Referees are always taught to apply the 18th law, common sense, and discipline committees should have the ability to do the same and adjudicate based on the specific circumstances surrounding the explusion and the history of that player, rather then by classifying the card into a category and issuing a required suspension. This may produce the most consistent results but not the necessarily the fairest. As I've been told by players when I've tried to convince them I was being consistent and they replied, "ya, your consistent alright, consistently bad."

 

[PNE]

WB ,
Training was good as always. Nice to see we get some better beer these days.

ROB ,
If I could remember the situation I may be able to give you an explanation. However , I don't remember much about the games on Sunday other than it was bloody cold !!!
