THE PARABLE OF THE REFEREES

Three World RPS Refs were meeting prior to a major tournament.  The topic of conversation inevitably turned to their individual refereeing styles.

The first ref, a neophyte, claimed "I calls 'em like I sees 'em."

The second, a Junior Referee with several years of experience, had a different point of view:  "I sees 'em like I calls 'em."

The third was a Senior Ref.  Nodding sagely at the remarks of the other two, he replied "Until I calls 'em, there's nothing to see."

One must meditate deeply on this.

In critically viewing parables I tend to apply the, "if A is true, then opposite of A should be true also", rule.
This parable appears not satisfy unless you are also suggesting that, conversely, "he who won't enjoy a good future should waste the present"?

It also leaves a grey area for those that may enjoy a good future who want to waste the present.

It's deeper than I want to dig. I'll be passing this one on to head office. I wouldn't be holding my breath.

"I'm struck by the insidious, computer-driven tendency to take things out of the domain of muscular activity and put them into the domain of mental activity. The transfer is not paying off. Sure, muscles are unreliable, but they represent several million years of accumulated finesse."
    
- Brian Eno, Wired 1/99, p. 176

A sober commentary on "fake online fantasy rps" if I ever read one.
