I live in the Chicago area and we have the Comcast game of the week, which is the hit with area officials as you can pick up everyone's boo boos.

Downstate official has wrong kid on the line last week and you can see the discussion as he chases correct player off the line and puts wrong shooter there. He's a good official, but it's all there for replay over and over. Crew as a whole had bad mechanics, switches, blowing partner's lines, etc. Fun to watch the big boys be human. One guy, as C for foul shots, constantly raised arm for chop on the first toss of a two shot foul........?????

That said, I had about 40 seconds of highlights from a boys game I did on the Internet and I certainly impressed no one.

I'm sure the crew had 'tight collars' doing a national game on ESPN.

For me, it's a good learning tool to watch your peers.
