Do you know this guy? If so, do you believe he can truly be OBJECTIVE when observing? It would be hard for me to believe it!!

Furthermore, it proves to me that he CANNOT be objective by his scheduling of his observing around his and only for his daughter's games. I would think that a D-I official would have a problem scheduling his off-days to coincide with his daughter's games...that he is observing! However, I do suppose that by some remote, longshot chance, he really can be an objective observer to these games.

That being said, if he really can be that objective, then isn't he robbing his daughter of his fan participation and parental support? I think that would be very sad! What is that saying about the character of this official?

I, too, wish to be a D-I official someday, but not at the expense of meaningful and fruitful relationships with my wife and children...something that I'm sure will be quite a challenge.
