I think certain people who don't live in Portland are over-generalizing the situation here. I'm quite certain that if someone transfers in here with an impressive resume including post season games and such, our assignor will be talking to that person's old assignor to find out if they are the real deal. I'm pretty sure that person will be looked at early and given varsity games quickly here. However, just because you worked varsity games before won't and shouldn't guarantee you'll work varsity games when you transfer in. It may take you a year or two to get there, and if that makes you want to quit or find another assignor, I think you might be in this for the wrong reasons. There are literally hundreds of people who deserve to work varsity games here - too many to allow everyone get the games they think they deserve. You have to go through the system, just like everyone else. I've been in 5 associations around the country and the one here in Portland is by far the best and most fair association I've ever worked for.
