Despite how questionable you feel a referee is, The Guys Who Make The Calls always appear to be the sharpest and most attentive workers on courts and fields — with the exclusion of the Pacific 10 Conference, the NBA and now, Belarus.

Appears that referee Sergei Shmolik drank so much that he rode the mechanical bull before a soccer match in Belarus. Due to back pain, Shmolik was helped off the field — drunk.

In TV footage shown Wednesday on Russian television, Shmolik staggered as he was helped off the field at the end of Saturday’s match.

Personally, because soccer doesn’t really do it for me — you know, like that borderline 6.0 chick even with the beer goggles — I’d have to agree with this ref’s measures. Common now… Belarus? I couldn’t tell you the hemisphere, nevermind the contident that Belarus resides on.
