After the game, the Plate Blue confides in the DC that the BR was in fact out, that the Field Blue asked him " Did she pull her foot ? " To which he answered ' Yes ' ...

If that is true, it is ridiculous.....
You are telling me that at the NCAA level a PU did not know what U1 wanted to know????? Sheesh.
IF what you are relating is what really happened
(I was late to the dance and responded before seeing all the other posts - but it bears repeating......
SHEESH!)

That's pretty funny although I stopped being perfect to the ones that thought I was perfect, somewhere around the time they turned into a teenager. Dang it!

No, they dont need to call you by your name. It is better for us all if you dont have a chip on your shoulder and walk around making up stuff that just applies to you because you create a little belief for yourself. "Blue" is what we get called, that is our "title" ...there are enough real issues without self created crusades. Let em play ball. Do your job. Youre not the provisional governor of a small country, your officiating a game, blue.

In seven years, they'll be astonished at how much you've learned in that time.
