I never said that there were no politics involved in NCAA Women's Officiating (and Juulie, who knows me personally, can attest to the fact that I have discussed that very issue at camps before)...however, Mr. Rutledge made a statement that there was MORE politics on the Women's side - I disagreed with that, he tried to change what he said, I called him on that, and now his buddy PS2 jumps in to say someone is livid...ib the immortal words of Jurassic - "Lah me!"

Why does it bother you so much what I say? I have every right to feel a certain way about Women's basketball. Both Men's and Women's basketball has a lot of politics involved. In my opinion, Women's basketball has more politics or more factors where an even smaller group of people get the big assignments. I base that on what I have seen and what those say that work at that level. If you feel that is outside of what you believe, so what. I live in a large metropolitan area where there are officials that work D1 ball on both sides. The Big Ten office is in this area. They Big Ten alone holds a Men's camp and the assignor for the Big Ten Women holds a camp in the area as well. There are a lot of officials that are trying to go after that big time college dream and do not have to get in a plane or drive hundreds of miles to get there. I am just sharing you there sentiments and their opinions as well. If you do not agree with that, who cares at the end of the day?
