referees.. gotta love them

sometimes in the game of football, the best referees are the ones that you never notice... they keep control of the game by being respectful to the players and the game itself.. they don't need to make themselves the center piece...

today, 2 referees were a disgrace to the game...

1) one of the two never left the center circle. i dont know how he is allowed to ref U17 boys soccer when he isnt fit enough to run outside the circle or power walk 10 yards outside...

2) the other was a referee who thinks he is God's gift to soccer as a coach and a ref... since he thinks that, he likes to take control of the game and control it. he dished out 2 straight red cards after a couple of challenges that were most likely yellows..

I can keep goin on how i hate when refs get involved in games especially when they might have something personal going on with a player or coach. It ruins that particular game and disrespects the game itself. it is hard to tell your kids that they need to look past the refs and just play the game when a ref takes the game to them and either doesn't let them play or doesn't protect them...

moral of the story: jesus loves refs as well
