MTD - I'm not totally convinced of this. In Cincy, its split. Some leagues coaches actually pick the staff. In other leagues, the assignor picks it but coaches have the ability to scratch a guy.

And still others, the assignor is the man, you get what you get.

Also, relative to the tourney, I think the new system put in 3 years ago includes more parties than just the coaches in determining who goes and who doesnt.

Outlasting the coach

I had a coach tell our assignor that he didn't want me anymore. I truly believe that he didn't want me because he couldn't intimidate me into making calls favorable to him. Also, I don't engage in idle chat with coaches, I just call the game.

The irony is that the coach got fired and I am still officiating.


I classify this as one of those "Consider the source" situations.
