In Response To: Re: The Jury is still out on the Jury (Jason " Too S.E.X.Y. " Burnell)

Jason,

You are taking some heat for all of the posts on all of the forums. The samll number of referees that have worked Most if not all of the National Meets this year take a lot of flap because many people think they can see better sitting at ground level 100 feet away from the lifter than the referees sitting a few feet from the lifter. There was one comment about me red lighting Gilly for an unlocked elbow. It wasn't Gilly #####ing but the one #####ing seemed to imply that Gilly was perfect and would NEVER have an unlocked elbow. That kind of sh$t gets old in a hurry. Especiallly when many of the meets have been crying for more referees. I agree with Robert when he says the jury system has been working the last few years. Althought,m I have seen some jury decisions that were just plain wrong and I told them so at the time. You know me, it is hard to beleive a person as meek and mild as I am, would yell at the jury.

Regina
