Boom, the last sentence of the story is for you.
 
Angry sex with a soccer mom has to be pretty high up there.
 
I thought it a nice touch, poin!

Forsyth Co. is a BAD place to call soccer, mainly because the fans, as you can tell, are out of control.

The AJC did a story a few years ago about the level of ejections in high school soccer. They were more than all the other varsity sports combined.

I love soccer. I love to officiate soccer. But until fans become a bit more knowledgeable about the way the game is called, these things will never stop. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

What's a ref or linesman get paid to work a club soccer game? $25? $30?

Way too little. My daughter's club coaches should use all the time they use bitching at the refs to actually coach during the game.

And the parents are ridiculous.

The parents and coaches spending 90 minutes bitching to the refs are the worst part of the sport. Horrible examples for the kids.
 
I doubt it's even that much, poin...

I know a h.s. varsity match pays 50 to the center and 33 to the lines... if they use three.

a lot of schools and clubs only use two to save money.

High schools in this area pay $80 to the ref and $50 to the assistants. A lot of teams but a limited number of officials. Younger guys are finally signing up to do it but before that, it seemed like there were only six officials for the 12-14 schools in the area and games had to be moved around because there wouldn't be any available.
 
We had a guy who assaulted a high school ref around here and he was sentenced to one year without being able to attend ANY sporting event, that included every the ones not involving his kids and included things like Steelers games and Pirates games (and I'm sure he was thankful for that) and any youth game.

I'd say this is what happened should to this woman. She should not be allowed near any athletic event for one year and neither should her daughter.

These parents need a wake up call and the only way to get the message across is to put the athletic careers of their precious jewels in the line of fire.

No, she should be sentenced to watching every youth soccer game in the vicinity for the next 20 years.

Good point.

That's pathetic. That pile of **** should have done no less than 1-2 years incarceration.

The sins of the parent, eh? I see the logic, but it's damn unfair to the kid.

Good point.

Or worse, be sentenced to watch the Pirates.
