Joey Crawford - JackAss Of The Week April 18th, 2007 - April 26th, 2007

Now once in awhile some refs get big headed but Joey Crawford takes the cake and gets gets suspended for trying to pick a fight with Tim Duncan

Anyone know of any Kids leagues out there that need a referee ?

Duncan would've kicked his bald ass.

They suspended him for tossing Duncan? Wow... i didn't see the game (obviously, its the NBA), but did see the highlights on ESPN. It did look like the ref dude lost his cool and his mind.

He's one of the more veteran refs, kinda surprised at this.

There must be more I'm not seeing. He's suspended. I guess this isn't a laughing matter.

one of the sports shows mentioned that abc had the refs mic'ed up, so its quite possible that he did say he wanted to fight Duncan or something to that effect which Stern would have heard as well. Also, I haven't seen anything where Crawford actually denies making the fight statement. Plus this isn't his first warning for this type of stuff as in taking over games and he was warned that hte next time he did it action would be taken.

I would love to hear what he said.

Wasn't it because Duncan was making fun of him? I would have tossed him, not wanted to fight him.

Even if there was a little bit of that happening a ref should be able to handle that.

A ref needs to be able to take that because he'd be a pushover. They can take the arguing well enough.
