I don't think you're being serious, but if you are, shame on you. A big part of this job is integrity, and not reporting all your income flies right in the face of that. And if you're making that much money, the schools should be sending you 1099s, which the IRS receives copies of and will find out if you don't file them. So, I'm not really inclined that you make this much money and get away with tax fraud.

By law? Yes, but to compare our integrity for what we do on the court with our integrity when it comes to reporting our earnings is a stretch and a "holier than thou" attitude. Report them if you want to and if it makes you feel better that you are following the law. We are taxed enough in this country and our tax dollars are not wisely spent. If somebody doesn't want to report their earnings, that's their choice. Let's just not try to put it into the same category as our on court integrity. That's ridiculous!!!

Do you, I, or any poster on here report fantasy sports winnings? They are income and should be reported as well. I bet NOBODY on here reports those winnings. Where's the integrity?????????

I couldn't disagree more. Way to justify your own cheating.

Once you've lost credibility in one area, you've lost it everywhere in my book.

I figured that response was coming from somebody at some point. You don't know who I am or what I do with my money. Or anybody else.

Let me get this straight. If you know somebody cheats on their taxes with their reffing money, they no longer have credibility with you on the court no matter how good of an official they are? If that's true, way to take an extreme position in life.
