Spending up to five hours at the park doing two games for as little as $55 wasn't worth it to me. Please, no speeches about how I shouldn't be in it for the money. I realize nobody gets rich officiating high school sports, but I'm not going to lose money at it.

While it does help to love the game itself, there is nothing wrong with doing it for the money. I certainly wouldn't take this kind of abuse for free!
