3 important things.
1) Pay more attention to myself before the game so I'm ready to ignore myself during the game.
2) video is really, really helpful. which I already knew, but was re-affirmed. And from the video, even in 3-whistle trail needs to be closer to the play than I was.
3) ABC isn't as complete a total a$$ as I thought. There's actually a thread of humility in there. Really, Mark, you'd have been amazed.

3 less important things.
1) Although the PBOA has its problems, it's a pretty darn good association.
2) Being a woman ref, even a lesbian, isn't as difficult as being a gay male ref.
3)girls' basketball is really fun to referee when you get the hang of it!
