I don't think even JRut is silly enough to make a blanket statement that NO ONE on this board has any credibility in their area.
The reaction to my statements in this thread is the very reason I made the comments that I did in the first place. It is typical that someone reads something, blows it out of proportion and when all the smoke clears no one changes their mind or point of view. The bottom line outside of this board no one really gives a damn what any of us say and who we are. I feel that way because there is no Ed Hightower, Teddy Valentine, Higgins or Jim Burr that comes here to talk rules, philosophy or anything about officiating on this very board. Considering how many weekend warriors we have that come here and have talked badly about what guys at the NBA and NCAA D1 Tournament level because they do something different at the JH or HS level, I think all those conversations speak for themselves.

Peace
