Stuff happens, we had a couple pretty terrible calls in our game. Like literally a 5 yard forward lateral that went for a TD but didn't get called because there wasn't a ref near the play. I mean, the only options are
A) Don't play
B) Play.
Option A would really get things going because without players, there's no league. I think the problem is we all love to play football and there is no alternative. I'm still a bit in the dark when it comes to why we haven't actively sought out people from outside the league to ref these games. For 20 bux a pop, you could easily get someone with a free afternoon to do it.
The refs in the league receive no training and many haven't even played, or hardly have. I know mistakes happen but to call something a touchdown then change your mind cuz someone not even on our field yelled something is ridiculous, and then he copped an attitude. That ref won't ref another one of our games.
