I was not part of the MichiganHSAA study that the New York Times quoted. I can say this, I do not suffer from tinnitus, but my wife thinks my hearing has diminished over the length of our marriage. I have wondered for the last ten years or so if basketball officials do suffer some form of hearing loss due to officiating basketball after all many rock and roll stars of my generation complain of hearing loss.
