Are you a football ref for real? I reffed basketball, which I consider one of the worst jobs of my life. Every foul I called was automatically wrong no matter how blatant it was. Some people need to realize that it's just a damn pee wee basketball game.
I feel ya. I reffed my son's rec league football games some years ago. It was the same thing. One opposing team's parents were particularly vicious to me during one game: questioning my eyesight to my manhood. I threw down my whistle, flag, and zebra jersey at the feet of the offending parties and told them if they felt that they could do this thankless unpaid volunteer job better by all means go for it (cleaned up G rated version). Never heard a peep from that sideline the rest of the game.My hat goes off to anyone who does it for a living.
One parent told me he was going to make sure that I would never have another job in town again. I told him to get over his son's team losing a damn game. You really have to experience refereeing firsthand to appreciate what those guys go through.
i've dipped copenhagen for probably 10-12 years and i've never heard of dipping coffee.
The idea sounds initially absurd, but after a little thinking outside the box -- i've concluded that i might try coffee grounds mixed with copenhagen just for fun.
I actually would think physiologically that drinking coffee would be a better mechanism for distributing caffeine because it's liquid. But we'll see. I will report back with my findings after this weekend.
(Please put me in the Darwin Hall of Fame if you never hear from me again!)
"Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky took me out to go get a drink with him? We go off looking for a bar and we can't find one. Finally Brasky takes me to a vacant lot and says, 'Here we are.' We sat there for a year and a half and sure enough someone constructs a bar around us. The day they opened we ordered a shot, drank it, and then burned the place to the ground. Brasky yelled over the roar of the flames, 'Always leave things the way you found em!'"
Sorry, that had aboslutely nothing to do with the point of this thread but when I read people talking about O all I can hear is John Goodman in my head yelling "Bill Brasky!"
I wonder how many here have tried the coffee grounds thing since it was brought up?

"He hated Mexicans! And he was half Mexican! .......And he hated irony!"
Not to get into a "Bill Brasky"-off but, that one was always my personal favorite.
