In Texas, "other side of the state" takes on a whole new meaning. Just imagine "out of state!"

REPLY: You're right about that. I read a post about one of our colleagues whose playoff assignment was 250 miles away. Heck, here in NJ, if my playoff assignment was 250 miles away, I might be doing a game in Virginia..maybe with TxMike!

EDIT - Wow! I just saw on the internet that Absegami is up 21-0 at halftime. I haven't seen either team this year but that's a surprise.

I read it on...

I'm sure your game will be on here. I had the Cherry Hill East v. Egg Harbor Township consolation last weekend. Go figure...we had a quarterfinal and no good game picks but a consolation game was covered. Your game should definitely be here by the time you get this message.

Nothing on there yet...Butr I will check it later...AC was the last game list against Absegami. Absegami out coached Pennsauken big time. Never seemed like Pennsauken got in the groove at all.

wow, that is a trip!

In Michigan we try to work together year round and work the first three rounds of the playoffs together as a crew. After that the last two rounds (State Semi's and Finals) our governing body and local associations select individuals to work together based on ratings, experience, etc. There are certain requirements for each member of the crew (# games worked this year, # of ratings, Rating Avg) for that person to be postseason eligible. If one person can't make it out of a five person crew then the state will appoint a fill in for a selected five man crew.
