That would be. . . not.

No offense, Nevada, but you need to get a grip on reality. Your posts over the course of the tournament reek of jealousy and/or resentment. These guys don't work the D1 championship tournament b/c they put out for the assignors, ok? Do they have connections? Undoubtedly. But they've worked for years and years to improve their game. Bottom line is that they are the best officials in the country, outside of the NBA. That's why they're there, and you and I are posting on this dicussion board.

To be fair to you, when I was in my first couple years as a JV official, I often would sit and watch the Varsity games and think, "Jeez, I could do a better job than that." But now that I do the Varsity games, I can look back and see that I was clearly not ready then.

Don't be so quick to criticize. Don't wish for your promotion too quickly. It's better to be a year late than a year early, when you're moving up.
