There's no shame in wanting to be paid for our work. Schools see value in having officials and not coaches with whistles for scrimmages. Officials should be paid for their time and labor just like in any other job.

Exactly. It's also a large part of why conditions/pay in offseason tournaments haven't gotten better.

If the schools want free officials, let the parents who b*tch in the stands do it.
