Comments: KAmkAr was it tough to ref? Did you make mistakes? ' I did ref a few times. Not with kids but adults. And not pro. It ain't easy.
Comments: In early days of Jame Doosti (Pearce College) in the valley World Cup referee Essy Baharmast was nice enough to come and do Jame doosti matches. We had this guy named Ramin (now lives in Orange County doing real estate) little fast winger and great dribbler. He would dive a lot and after the dives he roles at least 6-10 times on the grass. In a semifinal match Ramin did his patented 10-roll dive. This was before the WC that Essy officiated but he was still very famous in doing games. After Ramin stopped rolling Essy went to him and said, "Do you have ESPN at home? I am there every week, get up"
Comments: Kamkar: I think the cargo shorts brought down the expectations during the game
Comments: I will be happy to explain the baseball rules to oon yeki if it helps
Comments: " He explained me the rules each time but I filtered out. " 😂😂😂😂😂
Comments: Sharing a story...Yesterday, my youngest, now 21 had a : friendly game with his semi pro team playing against a USL championship team (like our Azadegan). We get there 7:30AM. Game was scheduled for 8:00AM cause it's hot like hell by the Gulf. The refs didn't show up. Waited till close to 9:00 and still no refs. Have you all guessed the rest? Yes I did. In my street Khaki shorts and my polo shirt. Got the whistle from one of the coaches and I called the game after more than 16 years from my last referring. It went well. Must have ran at least 4 or 5 miles. No assistants.
Comments: kAmkAr, I’m sure you know this but “Amrika setiz” is not actually a word. It’s a made up label to put down people and divide us even further. If you are not 100% with a group, you are more than likely a “Amrika setiz”! No worries, I’m being labeled that myself and tell you the truth, it doesn’t hurt as much as they were hoping it would!!! I’m just happy some of these people are not in charge of anything important.
Comments: Today I saw Rashti posted that I once said: "Americans are the most coordinated big people. "I thought he meant the way I am coordinated with Farzad to make sure everybody left the site or I am in coordination with him when arguing with Zinsky I think I once said that Americans have the best hand eye coordination and it was in relationship to same type of sport discussions. Not sure what big people means here
Comments: One thing about Americans in general with respect to sports is their skills with hands and arms. (Baseball, football, basketball, golf, goalkeeping in soccer). I think on average US has one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
Comments: Kamkar: Your thing is Art, Science & Mathematics ![]() Or may be you are just a grumpy old man
Comments: Farzad, those were the two that I hated. Still took my son many times to the minute made park to watch the Astros. He explained me the rules each time but I filtered out. Two of my sons are avid golf fans and they play a few times per week. I go with them once in awhile. I found out that I'm great in putting. They tell me no wonder this is an Old people sport :) but still, not a fan. Too boring and too slow for my taste.
Comments: Wow Albania beats Poland. what a nice goal by Albania. '
Comments: Zinsky: You should do a poll on oon yeki to see if there is any merit to my hypothesis
Comments: It actually made me chuckle when Zinsky said back to NFL so that popped in my mind ![]() It is not scientific ![]()
Comments: Baseball is not for us as our dads never played catch with us. Never took us to a day game, bought us cracker jacks and hot dogs and showed us his old baseball cards. It was cheap to get in, even a lower to middle class could afford it. However it was mostly a white American experience. Those were the Zinsky's MAGA days ![]() The only time this year I watched a game interestingly towards the end when the SF Giants pitcher was about to throw a no hitter but failed. You watch a no hitter for the pitcher not for the hitters
