I don't know much about him as a ref though I'm sure I've probably seen him a 100 times, probably a good thing I guess. Anyone have any info on him/ his fairness?

[TrueBlue07]

all I know about him is he has an awful case of flabby arms where his triceps should be. It'll be too cold for short sleeves on Sunday so you prob wont be able to see it.


Dont know much about his rep as a ref

This bothers me a bit, but it is better than it being Triplette again that's for sure:</P>
