I understand those comments.
I have observed officials in their 6th to 10th games.
They often walk and are too tired to blow the whistle.

So what you can get are a bunch of tired, sloppy players on the floor with a couple of tired, sloppy refs with tired coaches observing.

Not a pretty picture.

Agreed.

Three weekends ago, I was assigned 13 games! Ridiculous! I gave two up to my regular HS partner. Evenso, 11 was too many. Lask weekend, told the assignor last weekend that I did not want more 10. 7 games worked out quite nicely. 2 on Fri., 3 on Sat., and 2 on Sun. and I still felt good.
