Ok, I see a little better what was eating at you. I interpreted it similarly, only without the "only" that I underlined in the above quote. I thought he was saying since women play the games, women ought not to be underrepresented in the officiating ranks. And I would agree with that. Likewise, if a given league is made up of 95% black athletes, I would think that the officiating roster ought not to be 95% white officials. I would also agree with what you wrote in your last post.

I think we're on the same page.
