Technically true, I'm sure, but that still doesn't change the fact that your place of business is not considered to be your home by the IRS unless you have a distinct office space set aside for that purpose and only that purpose. Your kitchen table will not count. Most referees don't have a place of business at all.
As such, driving to/from a game from/to your home is considered commuting miles by the IRS, according to the article...and according to what I've heard before. Driving between from one game to another in a day is business miles. Driving from your day job to your game is business miles. Driving BACK to your day job after the game is business miles.
