5. DON'T TAKE THESE GAMES

High school ball doesn't start in these parts until at least November, so until then, Mens/Womens league games are pretty much all there is. I get some college games, but obviously there's only so many of those.

As well, mens/womens leagues are fairly big "customers" of ours, so everybody's pretty much expected to be available to work at least a few of these games a week.

The game that prompted my intital post: seven T's, two ejections - a close game AND overtime. I was also working with a fairly weak partner, so it felt like I was by myself. Normal mens league game duration: 70 min. This game: 90 min.

90 minutes for a game isn't that long. Where I work it is slightly above average but still common. How long do the quarters last in this league?

Your coutless technical fouls experience inspired me:
The seven T's in the seventies made seven ties at seventeen.

I'm sure you guys can make this poem longer!
