Funny you said that. Last night I had a game that was a double overtime game. The scheduled game time was 7:00 and I was in my car at 9:00 and that included taking a shower and waiting for my partners to take their showers so we call could leave the site together.
Peace

Last night's start was 5:30. We were done at 7:00, with the overtime. For an OT game, I thought it went fairly quickly.

First foul called with only 3 seconds off the clock. We called - believe it or not - a new record at least for us - a total of 89 fouls that night. :( The AD emailed this to us the following morning - congratulating us on keeping the game in control. Out of all the calls - the only comment/question from either coach came on a jump ball. He said my whistle was a little quick - that the players had to both grasp the ball for 2-3 seconds before that call could be made. I smiled and said I believed it was simultaneous possession and we were going with my whistle. He laughed and admitted that even if I was wrong it was kind a lame complaint in that game.
Anyone else with L O N G games this year?
Glad I didn't have the Varsity game after this one.

Good point. I might strangle any JV crew that does that. ;)
