| AGAIN ...I WILL LISTEN AND ADRESS ALL ISSUES... BUT WE CAN OF COURSE HAVE REAL CLOCKS FOR ALL GAMES NEXT SEASON... BUT WILL TEAMS WANT TO PAY $75 REF FEES.... THIS IS NOT BEING SARCASTIC... BUT GAMES WITH REAL TIME CAN BE DONE... NO PROBLEM... REMEMBER YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET...
I ENCOURAGE EVERY TEAM TO NOTE THE TIME WHEN YOUR GAME STARTS... AND THEN NOTE WHEN IT ENDS... IF IT ENDS IN LESS THAN 1 HOUR WE HAVE AN ISSUE... LET ME KNOW SUNDAY

| Exactly, when the league started we where paying what we paid for rays refs and cash was going to get some new refs all for 40 dollars and as the weeks go on the refs change and so do the prices. We just want consistency and no one minds paying a higher price but we want to know everything up front before the season starts. Also why in week 8 are the refs telling us we are going by NCAA rules now? When i asked them they said thats what the commish said.

| 1. THE HARTFORD REFS RAISED ED THE PRICE FIRST NOT ME...I DIDNT RAISE PRICES THEY AGRRED TO 40 AND THEN CHANGED IT TO 50 I SAID NO THEY HAVE TO DO 45...IF HARTFORD REFS DONT RAISE THE PRICE ...REFEREE ISSUES NEVER WOULD BE ADRESSED AND I WOULDNT HAVE WATCHED THEIR PERFORMANCE... THEY BROUGHT THEMSELVES TO THE LIGHT AND THE THE TEAMS STARTED TO QUESTION WHY PAY MORE FOR BAD OFFICIATING...
2. THE KEY WORDS WERE NEXT SEASON... AND OWNERS CAN VOTE ON IT... NOT THAT THE CHANGE WILL BE MADE...ITS WHAT I LIKE TO CALL A SUGGESTION
3. OF COURSE REFS CAN KNOCK OFF TIME... BUT WHY GAMES ARE STARTING AND ENDING ON TIME???
0
EX. A GAME STARTS @ 9 RUN PERFECTLY SHOULD END @SHOULD END AT AROUND 10:05... SO IF IT ENDS WAY BEFORE THIS TIME THAT SHOULD BE A PROBLEM AND YOU SHOULD MARK THE TIMES.
AS FAR AS WATCHING THE GAMES I SEE GAMES STARTING ON TIME AN ENDING ON TIME.... NO GAMES ENDING 10 0R 15 MINUTES EARLY...HASNT HAPPENED NOT EVEN CLOSE ALL SEASON.(BY EARLY I MEAN 15 MINUTES EARLY INTO THE RUNNING CLOCK)

| i actually like the mass refs. they make my team worry about our performance rather than worry about bad or currupt calls. these new refs keep they heads in the game. n these htfd refs feed off the sidelines...

| Cash you do a great job running a great league. There should be concern about game length and should be concern about price for refs. When we started 5 years ago the refs cost 35. Up until this year they were that price. Now they cost 60. And your are talking about bumping it to 75. With that said and a deep run into the playoffs the league will end up costing upwards to $1000-$1100. The fall league in waterbury...not the same league run by chris...costs about 700 no ref fees and we play 4 - 20 min quarters. The games last a legit 2 hours...Playoffs are 3 weeks long...there are 5 refs for the chip...Cash this isnt a shot at you...but $60 dollar ref fees are excessive for an hour long game...The refs are great...but the price is expensive...especially when games fly by...There is something to be said when its midway through the 3rd quarter and teams are battling those games are already over with when we play the time we currently play with. What im saying is either cut the price of refs, or keep the same price and make the games longer. Cash you are doing a good job...im just stating my opinion.

| I agree with Ish....the games seem to be going alot quicker than usual lately...Cash youre doing a great job runnin this league and i think i speak for the rest of the league sayin youre doing "GREAT JOB"...but 60 for refs is a lil extensive, i feel like we give the refs money and by the time they finish counting it the game is over

| i know some refs that skip the time to make it go faster, just so there not out in the sun alll day. last week i know a team that played and the game was over within 40 min. team A had 2 offensive postions all game 1 in the begining of the game and the oher after half. not saying it wasnt a defensive battle cause it wasnt , they just speed up the time in the games to benefit them. a meeting with the league reps and the refs is def in need ASAP.

| THE REFS FIX THIS SEASON WAS A QUICK FIX...I DO NOT PLAN ON $60 REFS FOR NEXT SEASON... AS YOU CAN SEE THE REF FEES FOR THE SUMMER LEAGUE ARE $45... TRUST ME I KNOW A BUNCH OF REFS I CAN GET $25 A PIECE... BUT WOULD IT BE QUALITY??? ILL BE FINDING OUT THIS SUMMER. ILL ALSO BE INVESTING IN AT LEAST 1 PORTABLE TIME KEEPER FOR THE FALL. THE BEST WAY TO KEEP UP THE TEAMS AND COMPETITION IS TO KEEP COST DOWN AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. I DONT MAKE A SINGLE PENNY OFF THE REFS. SO ILL BE BTALKING TO TEAMS OVER THE SUMMER AND IF PRICE IS WHAT TEAMS #1 PRIORITY... THEN THATS WHAT THE LEAGUE WILL GET... AGAIN I EMPHASIZE THAT IF TEAMS DONT COMPLAIN ABOUT THE REFS... THERE WOULD BE NO $60 REFS...AND ALSO IF HARTFORD REFS DONT COMPLAIN ABOUT $40 THEY WERE GETTING ..THAT ALSO WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE REF ISSUE TO NOT BE ADRESSED.
AND I WILL BE WORKING ON THE FEES TO BE $50 OR LESS FOR OUR PLAYOFFS.

| IF A GAME ENDED WITHIN 40 MINUTES FAN... THAT WOULD MEAN THAT THERE WAS A 40 MINUTE GAP BETWEEN THE END OF THAT GAME TO THE START OF THE NEXT ONE... I DIDNT SEE THAT MUCH STANDING AROUND ON SUNDAY... SO PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TEAM IT WAS?

| ANOTHER THING IS... WE CAN MAKE THE GAMES 2 40 MINUTE HALVES RUNNING CLOCK.... CLOCK STOPS FOR NOTHING...THIS WAY YOU KNOW WHAT TIME THE GAME WOULD END... TIMEOUTS WILL BE ISSUED BUT CLOCK WILL NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON... AGAIN THIS IS A SUGGESTION...AND CAN BE GIVEN ADDITION OR SUBTRACTION ON YOUR OPPINIONS

| someone made a suggestion a while ago to just stop it after TD and resume after kickoff, that will save us a few minutes. I know they say we have 1min to kick but i know for damn sure we take at least 2-3min to kick off (maybe more)
Do they really stop and restart on first downs and change of possession? all those little things can save us all time. But on average one team may get 3 possessions and the other 2/3.

| Hey Cash, We talked a little bit about this a couple of weeks ago. I think we should go to the same clock as the waterbury league 4 20 min quarters. This allows more time in the games for teams to come back, allows for more possesions in the game, and it's just like the pros's. The ides of 40 min half's with no clock stop even during time outs, nah not a good idea. Keep it as close to pro football as you can get it to be thats all. Your doing one hell of a job with a whole bunch of doubters, so keep doing what your doing for the HFFL. You cant please everyone.....
