Lawref, I couldn't disagree with you(and mplagrow) more! I have seen so many good people over the years that have given up officiating, either because of the abuse that they have taken, or because nobody would try to do anything about the abuse that they had to take.

You're both certainly entitled to your opinion. Please just remember that opinion,if you ever happen to be assaulted by a fan when you're officiating. You might wanna let your partners know in the pregame also that you'll be "walking away" if anything happens. That way they'll know what to expect.
