A typical game is 3 hours long. The average person works from anywhere between 8-12 hour days. Plus, I'd imagine they're getting paid decently and all travel expenses are covered. Sorry, but I just don't feel sorry for them if that's what you're looking for.
SORROW IS THE LAST THING I AM LOOKING FOR !!!
What I am saying is that it is obvious that these guys have to much on their plate and the game suffers for it. I think the refs should be allowed to work only a specific number of games a week. I remember last year there was a story about Steve Wermer(SP) who worked over 100 straight days. I guess when I type these things I have to be clearer to some people.
