Mental Aerobics…

Okay it’s another lazy Friday, so time to stimulate your neural pathways. Here’s a little exercise for your brain. See if you can solve this puzzle. First person that does gets worldwide adulation and respect!
You are refereeing a football match (that’s soccer to you guys in the States) between the Red City Rebels and the Blue City Bombers. Four of the 22 players on the pitch are called Kevin; one in the red team and three on the blue one. Three of the players are named Danny; two on the blue team, one on the red team, and both goalkeepers are named Diego. What is the referee’s name?

I admit it ... I was totally burned by getting into a math frame of mind and going straight for the numbers. That's what I get for reading too fast! :)
Okay, I know I'm late too. But I did guess it was Me!!! I had to think about it, oh about 15 seconds, but I did get it.
oh my Randy, that wasn't a tough one at all. You weren't kidding about a lazy Friday.
answer: I am the referee.
have a good weekend in deed.
-RG,
The answer couldn't be "me", because I would never participate in such a weak sister game as soccer, full of pretty boy flopper's that go down when an opposing player steps on their shoelace.
Rugby anyone?
The original referee was Fernando..but he fainted three minutes before the start of the match. So the officials are trying to decide between Rob Styles who is a blues supporter, Steve Bennett a reds supporter or Fernando's brother Rodriguez. But he's on holiday in Europe where he will be fourth official at the Champions League Final in Rome. The players are getting impatient as officials are still on the phone trying to sort it. They may call you up...who would you choose???
Have a rocking weekend...
love Angie
Nice puzzle! Shows you the power of reading closely too...

Randy, here's an alternate answer: You said it -- the referee's name is What! (With greatest respect to the legendary team of Abbott and Costello......) Have an awesome weekend!

Too hard for me! But my guess is Bob. After all that's the most popular name you see on shirts around the world so it's gotta be! Just kidding. It's the weekend and I'm gonna go grab some rays and a cold beverage!
I think on this one all answers will be both right and wrong.
In my game the referee is called Federico, but I think Allan got there to referee before I did, so the Referee's name is Allan!!!
HAHAHA
Happy weekend!
Federico
Very good weedhopper! What about the rest of you? Tell the truth God is watching! Were you stumped?
