You'd think they could find a black chick who could actually REF, though. The thing that REALLY pisses me off about Violet, though. I mean, okay, she sucks, makes BOGUS calls from angles where she has no view, that's a problem, yeah. But what really pisses me off is that she refuses to discuss ANYTHING with any players or coaches. No ref has to take abuse from players/staff (even though some really deserve it). But it's part of the officiating world: you gotta explain yourself and have conversations with players and coaches with legitimate concerns. Violet will make these BOGUS calls, and Jerry or Raja will go over to ask her about it, and she doesn't give a verbal or even physical response whatsoever. She just stares ahead and ignores it.
February 18, 200422 yr nice way to start the "second half" even though there's only like 1/4 of games left, go figure. anyhoos, awesome game for dwyane..he just keeps getting more respect. he deserves it.
