Bias Kickball

Today, my sister, her three friends, Josh, and I all played kickball. Karen was the referee. We hated the game.

Josh and I thought the rules were totally unfair. You can't throw the ball at people, you can only kick it so far, etc. And to make matters worse, she was bias. Then, we got to kick. We were leading by, like, 3 points, but Karen said it was by 1. So, by this time, I had had enough.

I told her that, just like in real games, the referee is switched out, to make sure that this kind of thing doesn't happen. I suggested that we do the same. She totally took this the wrong was (as an insult) and decided to let Kelly be the referee.

At the end of the inning, I say that Josh should be the referee, because, even if he is bias, it would be one bias referee for one team, and one bias referee for the other, making it even. Of couce, this idea only lasted a few minutes, before the Jacksons had to go in, at which Karen and Sarah quit.

So my point is this: If you're going to play a game, play it right. Don't become bias, then hate other bias people, then quit when you're behind anyway. That right there: That makes no sense.
