Obviously, I wouldn't expect this to be a common event, because any player who attacked a ref on the field/pitch/court/etc would be banned from the league for life and also face prosecution. However, consider the following:>referees in all sports make bad calls, calls whose wrongness is evident to all the players>these bad calls are made frequently; not every game, but in enough games that every player will experience it multiple times per season>these bad calls can have catastrophic results for players, insofar as they can deny a player a vital victory that would lead to a championship, trophy, etc.>these calls are made when the players are in a high-pressure environment, with adrenaline flowing>many (not all, but many) players are known for poor decision-making outside the game, e.g. the many NFL players who have committed crimesWith all this in mind, why don't we see players beating refs?

That's a court martial offence because its assaulting a civilian. They can be dishonourably discharged and stripped of their rank for doing that.

Refs should be classed as players for the purposes of liability, so they can be tackled, pushed etc but in return, they get to carry a low-powered taser for if things get out of hand.
>>152802090Because for most of them, the money in game checks they'd lose isn't worth rocking the shit out of the ref...at least not intentionally. You'd have to "accidentally" run them over or some shit and even then you'd probably still get a gay ass penalty or some shit.>>152802413HOLY FUCKING BASED.

Refs have gotten way too cocky and act like they own the place, players need to put their place once in a while and remind them that just as 99% of refs were bullied nerds in school, having a whistle and some cards doesn't mean they're not still nerds who deserve to suffer at the hands of the popular kids.
