Thank you all for your comments. I appreciate the different opinions and insights. In fact that is the reason I posted on this site, to hear the various differing opinions. It is my hope that all of you have a very positive summer, I know that I will have a better summer thanks to the songs that I have started to listen to again. For those attending camps and being scouted, best of luck and see you on the court!

Even assuming the Plaintiff's attorney comes up with a viable duty, he also has to prove a breach of that duty -- a breach that proximately causes the harm complained of. The "harm" in your example is the result of a punch. Can the attorney prove the punch was caused by a breach of duty by an official? Not if I'm the defense attorney. |

I always whistle "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida".

WOW, looks like there is alot of whislting going on!
I admitt I had to learn too, I've missed calls and made bad ones as well, and you are right, I did learn from them. I also agree that this AAU thing has gotten out of hand. This job we call offciating is not a full time position, I totally agree that if people expect much they must be given much. Fortunately I love the game and have passionately pursued to get better and at my level I am well compenstated, however I think that we all agree that there are those whom we have either seen or worked with as partners who you hope and wish you don't get again. Now, it is clearly the role of the assigner to do the best of balancing the referee, but I'm sure it hasn't changed much from my days of doing summer ball, where the best is not necessarily assigned for various games due to the pay or scheduling conflicts. Having said that these two particular referee's will see a lawsuit from what I have heard, and this just brings a new dimension for us. Coaches should coach, but if they don't referee's should ref and keep the safety of the athletes at the forefront. I just believe that seeing the younger referee's, they are seldom prepared and have alot of OJT, which is fine, but I hope we all agree that there are several referee's who do not have what it takes to ref, not all who want to ref can nor should be referees. |

Ha! I am willing to bet this is the first time DMX has been quoted on this board. |

I hope the law suit gets thrown out on its as$, frankly. What, exactly, should they have done differently aside from having better court awareness early? Did they set aside a safety rule that led to an injury? And what is in red is so obvious it really didn't need to be stated.
