Janaury Blues
I didn't really think it would bother me this much not being able to go to games, but I never realized how much it occupies my time during the cold dark months of January and February. Hoping something changes for tournament time because it's bumming me out.
Don't get me wrong, the streaming services are fantastic. Definitely better than nothing. Just not the same.
I miss the ignorant fans yelling at the refs over 100% correct calls. Haha

Re: Janaury Blues
Same man same. It’s been tough this year. Especially when you can see the gym from your house and all the people who get to be there. I’m addicted to high school basketball And the rush you get in them close games.
The good news is we’re halfway through January almost

I love yelling dumb stuff just for people who show up to hear dumb stuff. And I laugh every time someone on either side says stuff as dumb as what I sayRaider6309 wrote: Tue Jan 12, 2021 2:54 pmI love going to games where my team doesn’t play and listening to the fans.

Re: Janaury Blues
Nothing better than being at a game where you aren't really rooting for either team, then go back and forth yelling at the ref as if you are rooting for both teams. I can get some very confused looks.mlittle wrote: Tue Jan 12, 2021 3:04 pmI love yelling dumb stuff just for people who show up to hear dumb stuff.

Re: Janaury Blues
2 games this year when a ref made a call in favor of our team I boo’d them and it really confuses them coming from the other side.LeftHanded wrote: Tue Jan 12, 2021 3:12 pmNothing better than being at a game where you aren't really rooting for either team, then go back and forth yelling at the ref as if you are rooting for both teams.

Re: Janaury Blues
Got tossed from a JH game 5 or 6 years ago. I haven’t lived like that since. All I said was you can reach but you can’t touch

Re: Janaury Blues
Saturday the ref called double dribble on my boy from BEHIND him. All he could see was his back. He did a hesitation dribble and ref called double dribble. I tried getting thrown out but he was so old he couldn’t hear anything I was yelling. I just ended up losing my voice for nothing.

Were you tired last Friday at Southeastern? I don't think we heard a peep from you.mlittle wrote: Fri Jan 15, 2021 9:46 amI’ve actually been pretty good since getting tossed season before last. I get a little worked up now and then buy been solid last season and a half.


Re: Janaury Blues
No. I have a history with that gym. That’s where I got tossed last time. Was Lucasdavenports fault more than mine, but no need bringing up the past. Plus Isaac played pretty well (along with rest of team) so not much reason to yell. Gotta little worked up in the Westfall game tho. Some crews just allow too much contact with the 2 hands crap on the ball handler. No freedom of movement and when a kid makes his living getting to the paint it’s hard to watch some nights.Crab's Brother wrote: Fri Jan 15, 2021 10:15 amWere you tired last Friday at Southeastern?

I bet fan ejections are way down this year, LOL.mlittle wrote: Tue Jan 12, 2021 1:08 pm There is something therapeutic about yelling at terrible referees
We’ve been to several Waverly games (didn’t get to go to West or South Webster) but have been to the rest. The atmosphere just isn’t the same with such limited fans. It’s so quite people like mlittle can’t really yell at the refs or he’d be tossed every game......
Re: Janaury Blues
No. That’s what the masks are for smurray. They have no clue where the yelling is coming from.smurray wrote: Fri Jan 15, 2021 1:59 pmI bet fan ejections are way down this year, LOL.mlittle wrote: Tue Jan 12, 2021 1:08 pm There is something therapeutic about yelling at terrible referees

Re: Janaury Blues
Seen a few people get tossed this year. Couple rowdy games but mostly quiet. ZT was rowdy for us because they love to hate them some Isaac Little out that way

Re: Janaury Blues
Glad I can watch on computer, but I definitely missing going to games in person. Can’t replicate the intensity of a high school basketball game that is tight in 4th quarter and can swing on any one play/call.*

Miss this. Don’t get me wrong I’m happy to watch my kids play but the gyms just aren’t the same.
