The fact that the NFHS and NCAA has a signal for officials to use to say it is the former and not the
latter is a sad commentary on basketball officiating.
I do my job, just like all of the other many esteemed officials who contribute to this Fourm on a regular basis, meaning, if I am not giving a visible count, I do not have a CGS.
The logic behind this signal is STUPID! Emphasis to officials that they need to get their heads out of their a$$e$ and officiate the game, and stop looking for cute moms in the stands,
.
And now for something completely different. Yesterday I had my first rainout of the season.
