Fellow officials,

I think we are looking at the news of Ms. Katner's dismissal from an unprofessional perspective. Now, trust me I do not not like the unfair practices that both officials and coaches use in this business, but we need to realize that is the way the officiating business is run to a point in some leagues.
I also think as officials, if we do not know the whole story behind the dismissal, then we should not begin to speculate on why the dismissal took place.
There could be more reasons behind it then we know about. Let's back off of the bashing, and wish Ms. Katner the best of luck in her future endevors in her life.
Agree 100%

Could not agree more John.

But if we do know the whole story, then we're not speculating. So if we don't know the whole story, then our only options are to speculate or ignore the story. So if we're to discuss it at all, we have to speculate a little.

Well, let's wish her the best of luck unless she was fired with justification and her "future endevors" [sic] include an unwarranted lawsuit against her former employers. I certainly harbor no ill will against Dee Kantner, but (like everyone else) I'm tired of frivolous lawsuits. So if she got screwed, then more power to her. If she really didn't improve, or ignored warnings that her job was on the line, then she ought to go back to her college supervisor's position quietly. Just my two cents

Chuck

Now, we are talking public humiliation, women's rights, social justice....
It's the private stuff that created the problem.
mick

What private stuff? Did she squeeze her toothpaste tube from the middle and not the end? Did she drink directly out of the carton? Or am I missing something?
fletch,
The private stuff would be that which is not madeknown to the public.
No innuendo intended from me. I don't work that way.
The only thing I questioned was, "How could she not know!"
