To put it more plainly, the main reason that we don't switch is to give you more playing time.

That's mighty altruistic of you, Nevada. I don't think that's really true for most officials at summer games. Most officials are pacing themselves, and understandably so.

I would NEVER be willing to do this! No way am I going to wreck an entire Saturday by spreading out my schedule of games like this. [/B][/QUOTE]
