OT- Brawl at my soccer game

I've never been so embarassed in my entire life!

Three of my teammates and the entire opposing team [+ their coach] got in a brawl in the last 5 minutes of regulation time.


The Refs had not been calling anything the entire game, the opposing team was undeafeated and we were beating them for most of the game. The opposing team was fouling our players left and right; obsruction, high kick, pushing, and every cardable offense you can think of.. and the refs called nothing.

To compound the problem our coach was not properly subbing, he had 7 fresh upper classmen, including myself, that could take that team in our sleep.

It was 3 minutes left, one of the other teams players PUNCHES one of our forwards straight up, he had played every minute, so he was frustraited and tired. He punched the other guy back, two more of our guys ran into the try and break it up and just got dragged into the brawl when the entire opposing team ran in.

I have never been so embarassed by my teammates.

Doesn't sound like your team mates were the problem. The refs were obviously biased. Corruption is rife in amateur level football. In this country anyway.

lot's of the ref's around here are partial to Iowa City City High, exactly who we were playing today

Unless you just interpreted something as an illegal contact when infact it was legal. Being a ref, you see things differently.

Still...punching is pretty much illegal and bias is not a good practice. When your the ref, you are the third team - the other teams don't really matter. Just you and your assistants.

Don't you understand ?
He is embarrassed by his teammates !
I would interpret this the folowing way :
We from TBP are his soccer team .
The other team yet undefeated is the task to modify Freespace 2.
The ref is a damned jerk , he represents the difficulties we encounter and the failure that results from them.
And.... well , think of it !

Sometimes you've just gotta punch the ref.
it's human nature.

Nonono... the teammates obviously represent his sexuality and the referees are the pressures of modern society

Some Freud there.
