I'm thinking about giving it up.

Maybe its what our association has negotiated with the schools around here on the MS game rates. I know I read it, rates/mileage, somewhere online but with my luck, I'm not finding it at the moment. I'm thinking the mileage distance is smaller than that... I traveled 20 mi. one way and my partner was saying I could probably be getting mileage as well as game $.

Hope ya heal up, riding the pine is starting to irritate me.

Yeah, I think they increased it to $15 my second year, but I was getting $37.50 for a triple header on tartan floors. No idea how they covered them, but let's just say some of my partners weren't exactly IAABO certified. Some career ms refs mixed in with a few IAABO guys who just liked to work.

As for mileage, I'm sure it's all about your local association's agreement with the schools; just like any pay above and beyond the state minimums.

Yeah, this season has sucked. Getting those emails, "need someone to cover these games on this date" hasn't helped either.
