The people that frequent this forum, yes! But this forum does not represent all of America. It just represents a few uptight officials that has to have it there way. Your way or no way. Sorry, I couldn't resist that.

If you really worked for anyone of significance, you would know that you have little or no choice in who you work with in the first place. I can tell you if you work college ball, you are not going to tell an assignor you will not work with someone or they will just get rid of you and consider you the problem. Then you would be surprised! I can tell you have never worked those games before. Assignors are assignors for a reason. You do not tell your boss how to do their job. This is why I cannot believe you told an assignor you did not want to work with someone in a championship game.

Believe it or not big dog, I told them no. I turned back a college game this year, same reason. I also assign and maybe it's because of the way I feel about this. But I have respect for someone that says they prefer not to work with this person or that person. I bet this happens more often than not. You don't have to tell your assigner you don't like the guy, you just click the button unavailable this day, something unforeseen came up. The guy that asked me to work the C-Game was a friend and I could talk to him honesty.

Remember one thing JRUT. The laws of business in America is an open market society. When you are good at what you do. Someones going to want you, then you can dictate the terms.
