Do school's suspend coaches when they have a bad game coaching? Players? Look what it took to get Bobby Knight booted from IU. Yet a set of officials have what some committee perceived to be a bad game and they are gone for the year and then some?!?!?!
Now, I didn't see the game, and they may well have made some incorrect calls and or judgements, but if officials are suspended each time they do something wrong, then we will constantly be officiating in "somewhat fear" of the axe. The last thing I want to be thinking about as I am about to eject a coach or waive off a basket at the end of a game is - "will I get suspended for this?".
OK, I'm off my soap box now...
