Of Course, I've Never Worked With Tim Donaghy ...

I doubt it, but I have never heard any of my partners ever mention, or even joke about, how good, or bad, it would be to end, or to continue, a winning streak with a call; or how good, or bad, it would be to cause a team to win, or to lose, with a call.

I've had partners that I've considered to have made bad calls, but I've never worked with anyone who made a series of bad calls in a game that favored one team, or the other. Also, I've never worked with a partner who made what I may have considered to be a bad call to end a close game.

I've never even heard rumors about officials cheating.

I've worked thousands of game, and I've never cared one way, or the other, who won those games. I trust that my partners have had similar attitudes.

But, maybe I'm looking at the world through rose colored glasses. I've been known to do that.
