Its just a matter of when along the transaction each person's piece is taken out.

You can put it any way you like. I do not have to dig in my pocket and pay anyone to work a single game in any conference. Actually I am paid more money in the conferences that have assignors than the schools where the AD is the person that assigns the games. The fees with the conferences and the assignor are between the conference and the assignor. The officials do not play a direct part in that in any way. There is no association that is apart of the process and if someone wants to hire me, that is between me and the assignor. The assignors in my area can hire whomever they want to regardless of association or specific area. So I do not see this as I am paying anyone anything. And if I was, that would be a tax issue. I cannot claim any money that comes out of my check that goes to an assignor because I do not see it.
