Beto- ref stops calling fouls during the game. Decisions time -whine and call for better refs or fight fire with fire.

Beto made a good analogy...a ref basically stops calling fouls in the middle of the game and you have a decision to make as the team getting body slammed by the cheating team. Whine and call for better refs or fight fire with fire.
