It is a place to discuss officiating. Maybe the rest of the board got off to the wrong start with you.
However we have just one criteria if you are going to berate an official and/or his or her performance... that criteria being you have expertise in the field of evaluating basketball officials. Therefore please list your credentials so that we can give your thoughts the consideration they deserve. In your list please indicate the folowing:
*the last time you read the rule book
*the last time you read the CCA Officals Manual
*How many referee camps/clinics you have attended (for purposes of this evaluation, please indicate the college clinics attended since this is the level we are talking about)
*How many years you have been officiating
*Hom many games you have called as a Div 1 official
*Any other pertinent criteria that I may have left out
Now if you don't have any of these credentials you do not know enough about officiating to offer up anything valuable with regards to discussing officiating. All you have is your fan bias, which does not account for much. If you do, then maybe we should take another look at your evaluations. Until then, we will treat your comments at face value which is purely fanboy speak.
As a moderator myself, I will tell you if you have legitimate questions regarding officiating and philosphy, by all means ask away. If you came here to rant about "bad calls" against your team and officials who are biased, I will quickly delete your posts and account and you can take that to a fan site.
