BuffalOhio Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I thought someone here knows George Babcock. I'd like to get ahold of him for an equipment issue that I have. I keep getting hit in the feet (I play defense), and I have bunions on my feet. When I get hit there, Good GAWD does it hurt! I'm trying to find something in the way of foot protection, or get some advice from a pro on how to fashion something to protect that area of my feet. If anyone knows how I can get ahold of George, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks all, and we're 3-0-1 after a 6-0 beatdown of some youngsters last night. 3rd on the team in scoring, 1st in PIMs! Edit - I just left him a voicemail - that was easy! I hope he'll call me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played w/ and against probably a dozen refs through the years and nearly all of 'em were cheap as heck. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most are hooks, trips, or slashes when guys got behind me any my partner. I don't consider myself a goon, and I don't think anyone else would. I'm all about the breakout/breakaway pass baby!

I'm more of a heckler. There's another ref on my team, and we're usually much better officials than the guys that do our games, so they're intimidated by us. It's fun!

I know that if I was a ref, I'd like to terrorize other refs if given the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very rare to see a ref in the box unless the penalty was VERY obvious. They ALL stick up for each other. :o DC probably is correct in that his penalties aren't the goony-kind because it's hard to look the other way when a D-man trips the forward that would have been on a breakaway after juking him out of his jock. Refs rarely get called for the goony ones. ;) (Sorry DC, I'm just funnin' w/ ya. :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the player ref fans on a shot or makes a horrible play, the ref calling the game better get in a few cheap shots at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
