Had a week at the end of January that looked like this:
Sunday and Monday-off Tuesday-junior high girls basketball game (cancelled due to the weather) Wednesday-Men's city rec league-3 games Thursday-High school boys freshman game Friday-High school boy/girl JV doubleheader Saturday-High school girls reserve game in the morning, then 4 parochial athletic league (5th to 8th grade leagues) games in the afternoon My schedule looks like Pike's Peak, start with practically nothing at the beginning of December (maybe 1 or 2 games a week) peaking at the end of January (look at week I mentioned above) then sliding down to what I have next week (just 3 games scheduled at this point). When my family wonders why I'm practically non-existent in January, all they have to do is look at the master schedule we have and find out which school or community center I'm at that night. |

No, it's whining. We are as busy as we want to be. If we were forced to work some games it would be legit, but no one forces us. We all work, have family, and choose to officiate, big deal. If you have to many games, give some away. This year I only worked 100 games, which is right where I want to be right now. When more games come I turn them down, because I choose to.

This is great. I looked at this whole thread. Just glanced over it. Not sure if anyone could actually read all this mumbo jumbo. Sorry. Everyone has been busy, fine; but looking for sympathy in a "spitting contest" is preposterous.
(what does this say about me, contributing to such a worthless thread.) |

Wow, you are all so tough. I could never imagine taking on such a demanding schedule. By half time of one game I am begining to feel the effects of being out of shape. And after a WHOLE game, sheesh; I'm whooped. How do you manage!? You're, like, super-refs. Yeah, that's right. Super-refs. NF should come up with a cape for you guys. (I love being a smart a$$.) --Mark, congratulations on your career. But this is like the mafia, "You can try and get out, but they'll just keep pulling you back in." I'm sure you'll be around the game (and forum).
