Juco
Div III
Div II (If in your area of the country)
Div I

There is a huge difference from JUCO to D-3 let alone D-1 ball.
Not really, many officials skip steps all the time and its not like you are going to turn down an opportunity if you've been offered an upper level spot just because you haven't worked the previous level. There are plenty of officials who have skipped JUCO, D3 and D2. There are college officials who have never workeed a HS varsity game. There are also NBA officials who have never worked D1.

Actually that is not true. JUCO players go from that level to D1 all the time. Usually when players play D3 and D2, that is where they are going to be for the next 4 years (unless transferring or quitting school). Also at those levels there is an issue of scholarships and the type of players that attend those schools are different and can be based on the surrounding areas. The talent at the JUCO level can be better at times. Also JUCO programs have to recruit differently because things change every semester at their programs.

Peace

Ok, I guess I'll divulge my secret. Someone pointed this trick out to me back when the new format went up, but the command apparently is a valid command (that stays hidden) that tells the font to stay the same size. Useless for most things except for putting enough characters into a reply.

That's the short of it.

As I have said on previous occasions, I know that the correct spelling is "weird"; but I don't like it. I think it just looks wierd. I before E, except after C; and in words rhyming with "ay", like neighbor and weigh.

That means the correct spelling should be "wierd".
