Imagine if an official had it all, book smarts, and court smarts?

All kinds of smarts.

That would be one heluva good official.

They do exist. Black swans.

We have a few, not a lot, but a few.

Agree with JRutledge. First and foremost, one has to be able to officiate the game.

Other stuff is the icing on the cake, the cherry on top of the hot fudge sundae.

I'm in Connecticut. We see two person at all levels, almost all the time, right up to (but not including) the state quarterfinals.
