I want to thank everyone who came to this weekends Spacy Balls game and specialy to the NOCER (pronounced NO-sir) productions and staff at First Strike paintball. To all my refs. You guys deserve all the thanks people are showering on you. You guys did an awesome job. To the players it was youre great attitude wich made that awsome job possible. I hope the whole bunch of you can come back down for my second run as the taunting French general in NOCERs Holy Grail part deux. So we may whip that nasty So called King Arthur and all his silly English Kaaaaa_nigits a second time. Dont forget to bring your stuffed animals and coconuts...or kiwis... (sorry Comando...couldnt resist) but be ware the knights who say Niii. One last thing. I dont know for certain. But I think, I might have been the first head ref ever to actually have the distinct honor of ordering the field owners card to be punched for a rule infraction, during this weekends Spaceyballs game. To be totaly honest, afterwards I was actually thanked by Jack for making the call. Because he shared my belief that although anybody can slip up and make a mistake. No body is above the rules of the game himself included. I also will clarify the infraction was not one which is catagorized as a cheat( i.e. wiping, playing on,or shooting hot) but of command shack protocall. But a rule is a rule and to his credit as soon as he learned of his mistake he admitted to the error and as all stand up players do he accepted the admonishment and made no excuses or argument with the ref on the call. I hope see every one who can make it at the Rocky and Bullwinkle game at low country in Feb where I might finally get to go blow some stuff up. Pappaboar
