Women are shut out from the men's side. I can live with the Women's game wanting more female officials. At least it's pretty much in the open on the Women's side and not done in backrooms and in the dark like the above examples.
Would that be a big contract or a little one

PS. I just used women as an example, please don't infer that I think that's the only group that may get special "equal" treatment.

PPS. I didn't say that the group (women's final crew) was heinous, I started by defending Nevada's sentiment is all. Because in general it's one that I share (in most facets of life that is not just officiating).
