Thumbs down Varsity ref jobs a matter of black or white

Let's keep it real! Let's look at the road one may need to take to move up the ladder. There are some officials who move fast because there good. There are those who have to spend tons of money to attent a whole lot of camps, who catch a break like that. There are some who have everything set up for them. not what they know, but who they know. It's easy to see alot of officials working on the college level who clearly are not even athletic and can't even run the floor well, but they are part of that good old boy club. I am a firm believer that if this was not an issue, these officials would not have had this meeting. And the fact of the matter is, those officials who have came foward and spoke up, may face more rough roads ahead. Alot of officials will never even touch this topic with a ten foot pole, because they no it exist and they don't want to get less games in the future for getting honest. I personaly am gonna see if we can have a meeting like this in my area, because the state of officiating has a race isuue that needs to be addressed here!
