I really need to sharpen up my writing skills
No I wasnt expecting to work a game with any friends. And they are all happy for me, but a few are just totally upset by not meeting their personal expectations.

Tough to be totally happy, while feeling their pain. In past seasons, we all made it together, different levels, but together.

Thanks JRut!

Well, if you were really my boy you would decline your state games this year to show solidarity with me and my board.

Don't sweat it too much. Just know that you represent all the "boys" who didn't make it, so get your mind right and take care of business. I for one know I will be out there watching the big games this week and try to pick up on the last few things I will be working on this summer to get more post season games next year.

Congratz, well deserved.

Lcubed48, good for you, I gotta admire that! How many times had you been previously?
I could turn the game back, but that doesn't mean its gonna go to the official of my choice.


Thanks tomegun!

He was joking tref.

I crew-chiefed a boys quarter-final game last year for my first state appearance. But we're in the midst of a political struggle down here and my association didn't have enough public schools to qualify anyone to work the state tourney this year. L-3 is recruiting me to join him up north if things fall apart permanently for my association this off-season.

lcubed is one of those good guys in officiating who is always genuinely supportive and happy when his brethren have success.

Thanks, BNR. Most assuredly, my comment was a joke. (PS - the check is in the mail. I don't send account #'s and pin #'s)
Due to my late entry into officiating, I won't be hitting the floor for a State game. I've done AAA district games with more to come, hopefully. I just want to see/watch people I know out there - BNR being but one such individual who posts here. I'm content to be their spear carrier.
At my advanced age, I'm happy just to put feet on the floor when I get up.
