if theres ever been a game rigged it was the dora-corner game tonight. i dont have the exact flags called on dora but it has to be in the neighborhood of 20+ flags and 225 total yards. the highlight being a play where corner threw a double pass that was intercepted only for the refs to huddle up for 5 minutes and then call roughing the passer on a de who hit the wr who was making the pass.
Happens every now and then. Sorry it happened to your team.
I was about to blow a gasket last week at the Brewer and East Limestone game along with the rest of the Patriot sideline. Brewer won 27-21 but I thought it should have been 34-14. Possibly even 34-7. Worst called game I've seen in 15 years.
The subject of referee shortage comes up every season and I can't help but wonder if they need to change the way they recruit for officials. A lot of the ads I see make it sound like they're just going to throw you right in to a varsity game your first season.
One idea I like that some referee organizations try is visiting the seniors of teams whose season just ends. Football is still fresh on their minds and bringing them up through the park leagues would be good learning grounds for new officials. No reason for the guys that called a game on Friday night to have to turn around and call 2 or 3 younger games on Saturday (unless they want white cap experience).
