I was always told its who you know, and thats helped me to this point.

OK, good luck to you. Who you know might get you that first game, and it might even get you a year's worth of games, but after that, you're being evaluated (and complained about) by people you don't know.

And no assignor or supervisor of officials on God's green earth is going to put themselves on the line for someone who thinks they know it all but who lacks the abilities that can only be won through experience at increasingly competitive levels.

Go ahead. Fly high. Just understand that it's not all gliding.

Or, to quoth the great Earl Weaver: "It's what you learn after you know it all that counts."
