I was just talking about this the other night with the JV officials before my game. (Talking about long JV games, that is; not Dan's inebriation!) Having done my share of JV games, and a few varsity games, I see both sides. As a varsity official, you hate to sit there while the JV games goes over by 5, 10, 15 minutes.
But you simply cannot ask those JV officials to do a half-uh. . . to rush the game for convenience sake. They are trying to impress an assignor just as much as the varsity guys (maybe moreso!). It's not fair to the JV officials or to the JV players to ask the officials to give less than their normal 100% effort.
Just some random babble from me, too, I guess. JV officials should do the best game they can. The varsity guys can wait a few minutes.
