Sort of like referees that don't report their income just because they don't get 1099's. Sure, you probably won't get caught. Sure, it doesn't really affect me at all. But, it's still unlawful, and to act like it's "okay" is just ridiculous.
You are so funny man.

He gained no advantage. He didnt even get brownie points for turning in the test faster than others. Our state normally opens this up in Mid Oct. Dunno why they opened it closed it and said we must wait until Nov 1 to see a national test that was out there. I like Jess was excited to work on it. How was an advantage gained? No one cares what score we get.

In fact we had a situation last year where the test 2 came out and had a question about a technical free throw after the horn in a tied game. The big time referees who just took the test and cheated by copying the answers got the ruling wrong in the game and they didnt have OT. That is pure cheating. He said he got the questions so he could study an open book test...

Bud you are something else. Glad Jess is ignoring you. Glad you are ignoring the dictionary definition of the word and what it means. Thanks for others who have come to Jess defense. No reason. Clearly someone is looking for drama when there is so many better things to discuss.
