"What the hell are you doing, Steve?!" I scream at the ref as I skate over. "That was a blatant trip and you call it on me?
The ref looks unphased by my outburst. "I saw you stick your leg out and trip the defender," he says calmly. "And never call me Steve again while I'm doing my job", he adds in a more severe tone.
"Are you kidding me?!" I can feel the anger boiling inside of me. "That was a lucky bounce, there's no way I could have known that was going to happen!"
"It doesn't matter," the ref says. "The penalty stands. You'll have to serve it."
"Greet Cathy from me, Steve! I hope she's doing fine, as being married to a bonehead like you must be hard."
I skate off to the penalty box, fuming. I can't believe this is happening. I didn't do anything wrong and now I'm going to have to sit in the box for two minutes. I can hear the crowd booing as I sit down, and all I can do is hang my head in frustration. At least I got him upset with the last sentence and was off to the box right away.
