Wrong Call

Hey ref, you blew it ... you made the wrong call! Are you nuts ... crazy wrong, or just trying to incite the crowd Incensed people are calling 911 on the phone, looks like your days of breathing air won’t be long For goodness sake, even Stevie and Ray can see you made a mistake ... for crying out loud That call cost us the game, you zebra chump! And these drunk monkeys are gonna go off the chain, so watch out It appears your track weight looks a little plump Right now you’re adrenalin tired and breathless, but you had strong lungs when you blew your whistle jackrabbit fast If you’d made the right call though, present grudges woulda stayed buried in the past But the judgment bell’s been rung — and your fancy car on fire, down by the docks, is now taking a saltwater plunge

HaHa! Happens all the time, poor refs get so much grief, however, some refs do make awful mistakes!

Oops, that ref made a bad call, and everyone hates him and all, now he sulks, behind the hulks, the other team protects his fall! It's sad when they do make a bad call though, it ruins the game and everything changes for the worse just by the judgement call of the ref being incorrect! I really enjoyed reading your clever write about this subject this morning! You have amazingly pieced together a write about all the negative energy that comes from this incident! What a grand piece! Great Work!!
