How good/bad is your association involved in politics?

We also need to acknowledge that "college-ready" will differ from place to place. If there are more colleges in an area, they will need more officials and will hire some peop-le who would never even get a second glance in an area with fewer colleges...or the fact that when one college assignor picks up a newer official, other assignors feel like they "have" to hire that person also so they won't "lose" them. At times it makes absolutely no sense...

And as far as SoCal officials, I work games with officials from SoCal. Some of them are very good. Some stink...either way, it's certainly not because of where they are from.
