I just want to put in my two cents worth about Juulie. In my long (some say too long) career, I have met literally over 1000 referees. I don't think I can name anyone who is as totally dedicated to be the best more than Juulie. This young lady works harder and has more focus than you can possibly imagine. Years ago, I worked a rec game with her that was one of the first games she ever worked. She impressed me most with the quality of questions she asked, and her ability to accept every comment as positive criticism and motivation. I knew right then she was a winner.

I'm not posting this for any reason other than my belief that she deserves it.

Juulie - keep up the good work. I know I'll see you on television working an NBA game someday (although I'll have the volume turned off if Dick Vitale is doing the commentary).
Somebody find this guy his meds!!
