No, I'm not messing with anybody....and no, the other guys aren't messing with anybody either.
If you want to learn about officiating, the best time is exactly when Junker said. You learn after the game by listening and asking question from good, experienced officials in a relaxed enviroment. And if you want to advance up the officiating ladder, you had also better learn real quick that there is politics involved also. You have to network and show that your are interested, just like any other job.
Nobody is saying that he won't learn or advance as an official if he doesn't do what we've been recommending. We are telling him that he will not learn and advance nearly as fast as if he was going out and meeting with the other officials after a game.
The choice is obviously up to each individual.
