Message: [QUOTE="HoustonCuse, post: 2131645, member: 87"] Hey Cowtown, when I was in college, I worked in the gym which meant a lot of sitting around checking ID's and whatnot. Some dudes in their mid-40's used to show up to play basketball on Sunday's sometimes and would pay me $20 to officiate their games. Mind you, zero-point-zero training here. I was hideous. I was absolutely guessing on any kind of call whenever there was a drive and/or contact. I was totally undisciplined in where to look and how to look for true fouls and stuff so it was all just a blur. Anyway. It truly sucked because I knew I was hideous but what can you do, if you act wishy washy about any of it you are done for. Thought you'd enjoy my story and it does make you appreciate the skill involved in even being remotely credible at refereeing (although I still gripe like mad at them). [/QUOTE]
