[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares? It's just soccer.[/quote] I care. This is not about "My team should've/would've won if that ref were on top of it!" It's about avoiding injuries and calling dangerous/illegal plays. It's about teaching kids the rules of the game so they actually know what the hell they're doing (and 8 isn't too young to do that...I've seen 2nd graders correct refs). It's somewhat about avoiding parent/spectator upset when there is an egregious call. We've had refs to ignore dangerous play, don't call clear violations (handball, improper throw-ins, etc...) and in a recent case one ref who did not know the score of the game when it was over. It's a it ridiculous. [/quote] +100[/quote]
