I agree, some refs get all into it and think they look cool I guess, even though they look like idiots. I think that refs should have to be able to get up and down the floor, which most around here can't. There are a few good refs around here, but most of them are TERRIBLE. The Hall brothers are 2 of the worst. I know that refereeing isn't easy, and questionable calls can go either way, and refs can't get every call right. BUT, a lot of refs around here have their favorites, and they don't make OBVIOUS calls.

You base this on what? Your total number of years officiating or coaching or playing? Being a basketball player is very different from being a referee. Fans, players, and coaches look at a game through TEAM-COLORED Glasses. Mike Hall was rated Number One BY THE COACHES in the15th Region and will represent the region at the Boys State Basketball Tournament this year. He has worked hard to achieve this milestone and this honor is not given lightly by the coaches. So, again, your years of experience far out weigh all the years of experience the coaches of the 15th Region cumulatively have?!
