Heckling college kids who are 18-23 years old is wrong. I can understand emotions getting the best of someone at times but most of these kids pay to be out there, are great kids, are students who spend most of their week sitting in class, studying after class, going to practice, studying the game and trying to fit in a social life too. If you have that attitude about college kids then I seriously think you should hang it up as an official. I couldn't care less what you were to say at an NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL game but college kids should be off limits. 99% of us have no idea what they go through. It's amazing to watch and listen to some fat slob in the stands with a beer and a piece of pizza in each hand criticizing a player who's out on the field trying to do something the slob couldn't even dream of.
