Forgive me but I was there and I don't remember anyone punching anyone or hammering anyone or knocking any girl to the floor at the end of the game. you must have been somewhere else but no in jc.

Big G no there has not been an increase in red cards, in fact I believe they have went down in the past 2 years. Now let me try to explain the 2 game suspension process for soccer. the season is 8 weeks long and there is a 16 game schedule. if you play 2 games in one week it is the same as a football player sitting out 1 game because it is 2 weeks before he can play again. This is the rational thinking to even it up for all sports/ if you look at each sports calender I believe in each sport you penalized the same in making a player and or a coach to sit out 1 week by the calender. With all this said i may be wrong but that was the explanation that was given to me. Whitey as far as the 2 red card violations that you mentioned I'm not saying your wrong but i also don't think you should have different penalties for red cards. one penalty fits all is not always fair but there also is no gray area either. The problem as I see it in soccer is that these kids play select soccer when not in high school season and there is not the sportsmanship put in select as high school ball. i'm not saying the high school coaches teach dirty play but I do know that select coaches teach it because they can get away with it in select. what everyone needs to understand is high school soccer is not select soccer it is high school soccer. played by high school rules not fifa even though most are the same, there are differences because of sportsmanship and alot of the kids are not select players playing the game. that is what everyone needs to realize. I could go on and on but I think you get the gest of what I'm tying to say.

First of all when your team scores the clock is stopped per the rules. ( SO THERE IS NO NEED TO GRAB THE BALL) Yes your opponet would get a red card for exhibiting violent conduct during a dead ball. Yes you could get one for taunting but a referee would have to be there during that game to see what is happening that lead you to grab the ball and your actions when grabbing the ball. ( i have never seen the scoring team go into the net a grab the ball after they scored. last I will restate there is no reason to grab it the clock has stopped.

Which Red card offense would you not give two games for. (straight Red) exhibiting violent conduct taunting committing serious foul play spitting at an opponent spitting at a game official using insulting, offensive or abusive language or gesture (toward player or official) leaving team area for a fight deliberate hand ball to stop a goal deliberate foul to keep an opposing player from scoring on a break-away These are from the rulebook. In my opinion Sitting out 2 games is not harsh for any of these acts. you don't sit out for a yellow/red offense (unless by school mandate which there are some).

It's not harsh it reality. The kids play the refs ref its that simple if you don't like the call stink it up and move on. Yes I have four daughters /wub.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wub:" border="0" alt="wub.gif" /> and they all played basketball at the high school level and one played college ball for four years. They all got tee'd up a few times, but like I told them after the game you deserved it with your actions. they finally learned and quit thinking everyone else is wrong. and may I say they are wonder adults now. /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

HERES AN UNBIASED OPINION. tHE KID GOT THE FIRST FOR HIS HAND GESTURE AND HE GOT THE SECOND FOR HIS HAND GESTURE. yES THE SECOND ONE WAS QUICK BUT HE SHOULD HAVE LEARNED FROM THE FIRST ONE. i TOO AS A FATHER WOULD NOT PUT UP WITH MY CHILDREN ACTING LIKE THAT DURING A GAME. WHEN THEY CAME HOME THEY GOT A BUTT CHEWING FROM ME FOR ACTING THAT WAY. BUT IN TODAYS WORLD EVERYONES KIDS NEVER DO NOTHING WRONG IT IS ALWAYS SOMEELSES FAULT THAT IT HAPPENED. BE A MAN A STAND UP AND SAY MY CHILD WAS WRONG AND SHOULD NOT ACT THAT WAY. IT,LL NEVER HAPPEN. MY UNBIASED OPPINION ON THE FILM AND SUBJECT.

When the coaches coach a perfect ballgame and the kids play a perfect ballgame, then the ref,s that you think are so bad will call a perfect ballgame. /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> You people need to get a life and quit living your wanna be sports life through the KIDS ON THESE TEAMS and just let everyone have fun and let the chips fall where they may. one last thing people quit WHINNNNNNNNNNING. I,M OUT. /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

Melton07 Just a few questions for you. Are you a supervisor, or an assigner. You speak as if you have 50 years experiance on the game.

Hey Dinner was great thanks for buying it. /hungry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hungry:" border="0" alt="hungry.gif" />

I'll be there. I will be refereeing Wed. and Thurs. I will have a Black hrra association shirt on.

Well Whitey why don't we let the referee's judge which coaches can coach and which are ignorant of the fact that they can't coach. then we will call it even. Are you even from Shelbyville? I haven't seen any one on here from Shelbyville post a negative about this game, it seems you are the only disgruntled fan. I heard it was a great game and it was ashamed someone had to lose. I have an Idea why don't we play till someone scores instead of pk's then you wouldn't have a gripe with the way it ended. Oh yea you probably would have found something else to whine about.

in the high school game the clock is stopped for goal, injury penalty kicks and any cards given, and also may be stop on substitutions if the refree thinks the winning team is substituting to stall. the rule of adding time is fifa. goalkeepers may bounce the ball as long as it is possesion and has 6 seconds to get rid of it. offsides is a different animal in its self. most fans are watching the game (which means the ball) they have no idea where the players were when it was kicked, you have one set of fans yelling offsides and the other set saying it was alright. in my opinion the refs get the call right 95% of the time. nobody is perfect and no teams are perfect, but everyone wants to lay the blame on the officials. I never see on here where an open shot was missed that cost a team the game. or that the defense had a break down. Eveyone wants to blame it on a call. So everyone needs to remember that most of the officials do the best they can, and yes they will miss some, but hey what about praise when they get them right.
