Local politics blues

[JRutledge]

Honestly this is why I am glad with our process. Only one person assigns all post season games per gender and they use a Power Rating system but not limited to that system and considering things like previous experience and even geography. And one of the individuals told me they will consider things like what kind of games you are working. So if you are working the top games in conferences often, it helps you as compared to someone that has a ton of varsity games but working games that would be easy for a rookie.

And as independent as this process is, away from conference assignors and official's association (even though they do give some information to be considered), people still complain. And they certainly complain when certain people move up and they do not.

I am totally convinced you could have individuals pick their own post season assignments and someone would say that there was local bias. You will never make everyone happy.
