[QUOTE="Just Curious, post: 366469, member: 4712"] Inspired by another age wishing thread... I can't jump.... Sooooo I took up refereeing... I have officiated for 18 years now... Or is it 28??? Oh well it seems like only yesterday since I threw up the last jump ball... Or was it the first jump ball... In the early days, some of the games would really upset me... I'd come home wondering if I was really that bad... Should I have made that one call different... Now life is great!!! And so is my calling... With failing eyesight and a big hearing loss... I call whatever I see... I think I see... I thought that I saw... I think that I might see... And no one ever complains anymore... Or is it that I just don't hear what they are yelling... One call that I made this past season had everyone on their feet cheering..... Waving the arms... It was almost deafening in that gym... It is so nice to go home after calling a great game... There was this one fellow that said one of my calls sucked... But with the onset of Ahlzheimers, I forgot about what he said two minutes later... Life is great at 56.... At least I think that it is... Or that it was... :D [/QUOTE]
