I would like to see the NCAA and the NBA follow the lead of FIFA and put in an age cap. FIFA's is 45. Doesn't matter who you are, after that age is attained, you must hang 'em up.
That is totally absurd for you to say such a silly thing about an arbitrary age. Some of the best officials in this country are over 50. Just because there are some in the officiating community that cannot get around at that age does not mean that applies to everyone. I know a man that is in his 70s and he is in better shape than most officials.

Also who cares what FIBA does?
