I just want to thank all of the people who post here. I have been notified that I get to work my first high school sectional tournament here in Indiana. I am honored and a little nervous all in one! This site is a valuable tool for officials, and I feel i have learned so much by coming here regularly. The knowledge of the veteran officials here is so valuable. So again, thanks for helping me be a better official!

Congrats. I also recieved my first 3A regionals and 2A state assignment this year. Nerves havn't hit yet, but i'm sure they will. The info here does get the mind moving, which is half the battle with me. Who am I kidding, It's the whole battle. Again, congratulations and good luck.

Congrats!!! Go do your thing. No matter what anyone says, it's not just like any other game, which is a good thing.

How do you charge? By the sarcasm, or smartalic,or rediculous comment. Just so I can break down the cost. For tax purposses.

If it were by the number of spelling errors, you would have a hefty bill.

Perhaps now it is time for you to become a regular poster instead of just a regular reader.

At this time you only have a mere 14 posts.

Since you are now getting post-season assignments, one would think that you should be able to contribute some valuable information that would help others in the same manner that some of the more veteran officials here helped you.

To me that seems the most appropriate way to say thanks.

At noon, I only watch Perry Mason during the commercials on The People's Court. That babe of a judge helps me digest my lunch.

AKOFL-I will be at the Sullivon this year too! I will be working the 4A Tourny as this is my 5th year doing State. I have done 4A twice,3A twice and 2A once.It is a little intense at first but you settle down after awhile and once you go once you will be looking for the invitation every year!

Anyway if you stick around for any of the 4a I am the tall,a little overweight bald guy(i am a real stud haha). So if you want to b.s you cant miss me.

Did someone fix it for me or are you just as good as I am. Never claimed to be a good speller. They need spell check on this forum.

Alaskareffin: I'll be the tall, not so overweight, guy with hair. I may blend in so look for the official with a great game and quick wit.LOL I'll see you there.
