Bad Calls - 11-11-2005, 11:31 AM

I was playing at a tournament last weekend and calls kept being made to my team's advantage, but I don't think we deserved even half of them. I know you probably wonder why I am complaining, but honestly, it made the win feel hollow, and I could tell that the other team was frustrated. What do you guys do in situations like this? Or in situations where your team is the one under the gun? Or is there anything to do?

bad calls are hard to argue but the best thing to do is to have your own teammates call themselves sort of self ref the game to make it more fair. Still it's up to the ref to accept your call but in most cases you would force the ref to accept the self call specially if the other team hears the self ref call. It's also hard to self ref if your own teammates are looking the win and are not calling their own fault weather the ball was hit out or the ball landed in on your side

This seems like the Ref knew or liked one team over another, causing basic favoritism. It sticks but but it happens.


No more cast, no more crutches, no more wheel chair, and yes more volleyball!


Mr. Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?
