Where did I say I wanted the responsibility of determining.... If you read the thread, you would know this is not the case.
Great for you and your 40 game schedule. Talk to me when you log over 300 per year.
Oh and by the way, grow up.

Who wants 300 games? My God, I *hate* off-season basketball.
I work from late-November to early-March and then it's time for college and high school baseball. I haven't worked a single basketball game since March, which is why I missed this thread. Football season just ended for me Tuesday night.
You are the Johnny-come-lately here, not me, BTW. See the upper right? Over 7 years and 4100 posts. I'm just late arriving to a thread.
I couldn't possibly care if someone is or was a coach. Coaching is the coach's job. I'm an official. I want my partner to think like an official 100% of the time.
Too many coach-become-official types are the ones that won't whack a coach because "he understands the pressures" or won't make a call on the last possession because "he wants to let the players decide the game." Or he'll show up and be friends with everyone from the athletic director to the coaches. Who needs someone with that kind of baggage? |
