Loss: 69-19

Pathetic yes I know but the problems we face could be mitigated with a few minor changes. 

The first of those is the refereeing.  I know it’s kind of lame to blame the refs when you lose a game but in this case it’s really degrading the quality of play we’re experiencing.  I’ve honestly had more honourable games of pickup ball than these ref’d games.  The gameplay is basically disolving into zone defense hacking the crap out of anyone who drives to the hoop.  Without any foul calls from the ref’s the only remaining option is to shoot from outside the key, not our forte.  The team we played last night however, had at least two consistent three point shooters to our none.  Hence the score.

Our whole team is really starting to get frustrated with the ref situation, because we’re paying a lot of money to have them come out and keep things fair.  We don’t really feel like we’re getting our money’s worth and as a result I don’t think a lot of the guys will play in this league again.  We’ll have to do some research about other referee leagues in TO.  I’m open to suggestions.

Cheers,

The Premier Post of the new Tarandon Blog.

Hi everyone.  Over the next few months I’ll be rambling periodically; primarily about things that bother me.  As time goes on I’m sure this blog will evolve into something more interesting than just Philosophy graduate ramblings.  The fun part of that evolution will be finding out what interests me most.  The improvement in my writing abilities will be an added benefit.

Stay tune to further posts.  I’ll let you know if I get the RSS thing working right in the future.

Cheers!
