I'm pretty sure that one dose of NyQuil has the same alcohol content as a brown-pop, anyway. Tastes about the same, too. Blech. http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk...icon_drool.gif

The boys varsity games are frequently the eaaaaasiest to call anyway.
Then why do we use experienced officials for them? Why not put the new guys on the varsity games to get their feet wet on an easy game? Come on, Rich. http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk...pshakehead.gif

For an experienced official. I didn't say that, but I thought it was an obvious piece of the puzzle.

Have you worked any JV games recently? Sloppy slugfests that never put the officials in a good light. Girls' games can frequently be the same way -- lots of contact, lots of sloppiness, lots of scrambling, held balls, and turnovers.

A good boys game puts an experienced crew in the best light. But that's just my opinion.

I don't know, maybe I missed something and am mistaken in thinking that you've completely changed your tune...

He said he didn't wanna get stuck with girl's games all the time, but he still does them.

Ahhh...I see. And could that be because he might then consider himself to be a "lesser" official?

Nobody wants to do girls games all the time, do they? But I don't see where calling them makes you a "lesser official." I find boys games more physically challenging, (you have to run more, as a rule) but often they seem to be easier to call because of a higher skill level.
