You have got issues dawg!!!!!
 

There is no loophole. They suspended him from their post season, not everyone elses. Conferences can only suspend you from their games, not the other conferences you work. No different than any other independent contractor in the country. These officials do not work for the NCAA, they are picked based on what each conference provides them. Nothing wrong about that.

Get a grip dude!!

Peace

In that case, Nevada, can I assume that we'll see your resignation the next time you completely blow a call or a rule interpretation?

This game happened when? Time to let it go.


(Of course, as a GW student, I loooove to see Georgetown lose ;) )

Thanks Jeff, you have made my point exactly. There is no way that the NCAA can hold any of these officials accountable for what happens in games that are sanctioned by the NCAA. Even though they are supposed to be the ultimate authority of all these games. The decentralization of authority is to blame for this. Since each conference gets together and hires their own assignor, the officials have five different bosses if they work five different conferences. Conceivably, they could work a game each day of the week for each one of them.
This would be like having five bosses at your work and in order to get a year-end bonus all you have to do is please one of them. You could care less about doing a quality job for the other four.
That is rediculous!

So is your crusade against Kitts. Never forgive him? Please :rolleyes:

By the way, although I am Mr. Grammar Guy and not Mr. Spelling Guy, your spelling might also be considered "ridiculous". :D

Chuck

Don't forget he's a Georgetown grad.

Actually, it's more like being a building contractor, and working on a different house each day of the week - for example, my neighbor who is a sheet-rocker...just because he works at a different house each day does NOT mean he does a lousy job or that he needs one centralized body telling him where he can or can't work...if he does a bad job at one house, he won't be hired back by the owner/builder...Kitts made a mistake, and was punished by that conference...the fact that he is good enough to work other places is good for him...as others have said, get over it...to quote a famous Jewish guy: "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone"...analyze Kitt's mistake, learn from it, but "never forgive him for it?" Please...

Are you also still mad at the player (think it was Brown?) that threw the ball to James Worthy (NC) in the NCAA championship game? That's a long time to be mad -- too much stress.

Is this the same Georgetown that reportedly graduated Patrick Ewing when he couldn't even sign his own name on his NBA contract?

Never was upset about that. You see at the time that game was played I was only seven years old! I had no affiliation with the school back then.

To Chuck,
Thanks for fixing the spelling error. If it had not been for spellcheck on the computer, I doubt that I would have ever made it to college. More importantly you have really helped me with your jab because I have realized that I mispronounce that word and that is what caused the spelling problem. I spelled it the way I say it. So you have made me look better not only in writing, but in speaking.

I noticed that Kitts did the Michigan State/Maryland game. It made me wonder if he would be assigned to an NCAA tournament game involving a Big East team. Just a thought.

Nevada, I'm glad you took it that way, b/c that's exactly why I now know how to spell it. My 9th grade English teacher jabbed me just as I jabbed you. "You don't REdicule someone; you RIdicule him." Always stuck with me.

Chuck
