Anyone notice how horrible the referees are in Lake Oswego?

I've noticed them everywhere.Comment

No.... But I have noticed how obnoxious the sideline parents can be when the call doesn't go their way... Here's an idea, take a ref class and do it if you think you can do better.Originally posted by noturmama View PostComment

I resemble that comment. I do referee and will at any moment make a loud comment when I see a another member of the profession making serious errors or erroneous calls.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

No, but the Mom's of LO know more about soccer than any other group of mom's. if you don't believe me just ask them. At 11 the Mom's are horrible because they think all of their private training to create the next Abby Wambach is working, but by 14 they realize their kids aren't all that and they tone down the officiating from the sidelinesOriginally posted by noturmama View PostComment

Dangerous play needs to be called so that our players are protected. I am just surprised by the decline in the quality of officiating. I also notice more disagreement between refs over calls, which supports this claim. There will always be sideline parents who do not respect the game. Their comments never help; they just demonstrate their lack of self-control.Comment

You do realize that referees are not assigned to a specific area, right? In other words, referees can and do referee all over. So to comment on referees in a specific part of town doesn't make much sense.Originally posted by noturmama View Post
I assume you are really saying that all referees are poor? Get your license and do better! There is a reason for the shortage of referees- people making their lives miserable for not much pay.Comment

There are some I see repeatedly in certain areas, and one in particular in LO who I think is an LO club parent.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

and due to the lack of pay, many referees do look for games in their local vicinity to save time and fuel costs commuting. not to mention, many referees like to work specifically for certain clubs. most games are "self assigned" so it is very common to see the same ref at the same field week after week.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

young moms in LO?
Isn't 11 awfully young to be a mother? I expected LO to have older mothers.Comment

You need to check out that Starbucks on Kruseway close to I-5 at between 9AM and 11AM.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I think they receive a copy of Hope Solo's Book and the "Rules of Soccer" free with any Boob job.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Boob job? That's what we call it when we hire a guy from Tigard or Beaverton to come work on something.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
