I have all the respect in the world for Ted's knowledge, experience and management skills. I think he's one of the great Big Ten officials of the past decade. But I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you on this one.

You must not have seen him lately. He didn't look good out there.

Yes I have. I live in Big Ten country and see him often. I know what he looks like and obviously know more about his situation than you just based on the surprise you have when you saw him.

Peace

I took his OP as less surprise, and more excuse to dump on an older official. Could be just me, though.

Of course. Never took it any other way. But it was clear that he had no idea of what has or has not been going on with Hillary.

Peace

Actually Ted missed the end of 2008-09 and all of 2009-10 due to knee replacement.

I thought I read somewhere that it was both knees replaced. Anyone know for sure, just curious?

Found my own answer. Feb. Referee magazine page 9, Bilateral knee replacements 12/21/09.

2-3 hours rehab per day, now restricts himself to having at least 1 day between assignments.

Somebody wants him out there, even if you don't. He's working the Big Ten and Conference USA this season and has already worked 26 games to date.

Which D-1 conferences and games are you working this season?
