Mark,

I stated earlier that I am not a perfect basketball official but I have officiated basketball at the: boys’/girls’ H.S. level for 34 years; women’s college for 31 years (31 years ago I was the first male to officiate women’s college basketball in the State of Florida and one of the first males in the Southeast), including 18 Div. I playoff games and 20 jr. college playoff games; and men’s college basketball for 12 years. Since 1993 I have officiated over 30 AAU and YBOA boys’ and girls’ national championship tournaments (including 4 YBOA girls’ national title games in the last 5 years) plus one PAL boys’/girls’ national championship (including the boys’ 16U national title game). I sit on four IAABO national committees. I am a rules interpreter for my local officials association and teach its officiating class.

What does the preceding paragraph mean? For one thing it means that I am a bald old geezer who is long in the tooth and has just seen about everything possible until the next new thread really does come up with something I have not seen or heard of before. It also means that I am a crusty old curmudgeon who has the experience, knowledge, and hopefully the wisdom to take a young whippersnapper like you to task for unthical and unprofessional behavior.

Wow, that's a nice resume. Congrats and I hope to be there down the road.
