No, dude (that's an American saying), that's not what I meant. I thought that since you are upside down in your country, that when you toss the ball for a jump, it just keeps on falling toward the ceiling.
BTW - since the seasons are reversed from what they are here, during what months do you play? Also - what is the time zone difference from where you are (and where, exactly, is that again?) to the Pacific time zone here in the land of Starbucks? I'm just too lazy to figure it out. Do you guys now wear v-neck jerseys like us and are they striped or solid color like our NBA refs? Do you work mostly 2 or 3 man mechanics?
Thanks for the info. I'm always interested in hearing about how officiating is in other (non-Euro, of course) countries.
