It is kind of like the reffing situation. People love to complain about the reffing (and coaching) but there is no big line of people to get in there and do a better job in either one. It doesn't bother me much when people complain about the reffing in a match. Sometimes they are right and it was bad. Other times they don't have a clue. A week ago I reffed a match at a tournament when the kid lost 0-15. Afterwards I overheard the coach telling the kids how bad the officiating was. I didn't say anything but I looked at my table help and asked them was there even on controversial call in the match? They said not a one. I have no idea why the coach was saying what he did to the kid unless he was just trying to salvage the kids sanity after a butt whooping.
Isn't life fun?
