Previous Message In the parking lot to call me a fucking print and a child molester. Has to eject him in the 2nd inning after he called me a fucking moron bc he didn’t like my strike son I was calling in his travel playing son (again playing in a low level house game). Kid was throwing curve balls, not allowed, and told me they were circle changes. I know the spin difference, son. The joys of youth sports Previous Message Feeling like I did nothing wrong here, but willing to listen to the crowd. 10u game, ref is probably mid 40s just like me. Turf field, playing fast so the ball is going out a lot. Just like every other game, whenever the ball goes out I just kinda point the direction that i think it'd go. No words, not even a big point just a finger and thumb down at my side. One of the other dads that I stand with does pretty much the same thing. Several times ref and I disagreed and I said not a single word or action his direction. No one had yelled a single thing at this guy, not a word from parents, kids, or coaches. After about 15 minutes, this guy screams at the other dad and I "I'LL CALL THE GAME, YOU STOP POINTING" Who's in the wrong here?
