Great point. It would probably improve quality as well. More money = more officials = more competiton for games = better officiating.
As it stands now, there is such a shortage of guys that even the worst officials work a ful schedule in our area.
I'm gonna go rent "Norma Rae" and "Hoffa" and start to organize.
