I don't care now, but at the time I was devastated with that whole situation. 4 years later they still won't give me any games there. that is sad. In some areas, it's also part of that good O'le boy system also. I still blame my association to allow that to happen.

If this had happened to me in my association, I would have quit officiating. If you can't get support from your own group, why would you stick around?
