Thanks for visiting! See you again Soon!!!

I just read in the paper today that there was a brawl somewhere in Quebec where the police had to be called in.  It all started when a parent at an Atom level game insulted the referee, well the Referee’s father happened to be in the stands and took offence to this other man insulting his son.  Well they exchanged words and then blows and then I guess it got out of hand.

My problem with the whole thing was that it was an ATOM Level hockey game.  The kids that were playing were just that, KIDS!!!.  They should be having fun, and what ever the referee did, whatever bad call he made it did not warrant the parent in the stands insulting him.  Refereeing is the hardest job in sport, ANY SPORT.

And the father of the kid that was Refereeing, well he should know that some people will be taking offence to some of the calls that his son is making, and sometimes they will be right.  He should of kept his big mouth shut, and tempers should of never flared.  This seems to be getting more and more out of hand, where parents are taking these games too seriously.  Hockey is a GAME, and above all the kids should be having fun.
