I personally know and have worked with all of the officials mentioned in these articles.


I am happy to see some positive press.

Happy reading.

Good read, Ron.

I thought the stories were very well written, Ron, and the same thread ran through all of them - we do this because we love the game.

Have to wonder, though, about the woman ref who hasn't given more than 10 Ts in 20 years. Gotta be something wrong there ;)

That's what I thought! I can't go 20 minutes sometimes without 10 T's. :D

If only I was half as tolerant! :)

Please let me know
 

Just a request.

Many newspapers do not give high school sports, nor the officials, the kind of coverage that I think people want.

Certainly the press fails to give positive coverage.

If your local newspaper DOES give positive coverage, please email me, and send the URL.

Thanks.
