Just wondering who hear has actually spent time as a zebra?
I at one point was a high-school basketball ref. Pretty basic things, and because the leagues I called were not highly competitive, it was a relaxed environment and helped me learn a lot more about what a ref sees or not.
One thing that annoys me is when people complain about things after you've given a warning. It's one thing to not know how a ref is going to call things, but if you warn people about delays of game, slapping a backboard, or other jackass moves....what else are they going to expect besides me indicating a technical foul?
So anybody else spend time as a ref?
