Hey, if you're going to cash those checks you get for doing Girls games then please do everyone a favor and give it your all.

Could not agree more, that is why I do not do them.

The reason that is, because many officials do not like them. That is why many officials I know refuse to do them. That is also why Boy's assignors will not give you a boy's schedule if you are doing an abuntant of girl's games. If it bothers you that folks complain about them, then do not listen. Because just like anything in life, folks have the right to a choice.
Personally I think the bigger problem around here is the fact that they will let anyone do these games. I see the absolute worst, out of shape, older officials doing girl's games. Guys that could not handle a Freshman boy's game are officiating Sectionals in Girl's basketball. One of the reasons a future State Champion is allowed to advance to Bloomington on a call from the Lead position waiving off a basket to send the game into overtime. It is not the lack of interest that is the problem in Girl's Basketball.
