Soapbox Time ...

When I was on my way up, I, and almost all of my fellow subvarsity colleagues, would stick around to watch the varsity game, and even observe the halftime, and post game, locker room discussion.

Today, many, but not all, subvarsity officials, work their game, take off their shoes, don't even bother to change, or shower, and give us a wave as they make a beeline out the gymnasium door.

My simple advice to subvarsity officials: Stay and watch the varsity game. You learn best by observing experienced officials working tough, competitive games. The adult beverages will still be cold later that evening.
