Do you think the refs at your YMCA had aspirations to play ball initially or officiate? In the world of sports officiating, being a professional sports ref (primarily in the NBA) is clearly the apex. 175k - 550k a year plus benefits and travel expenses, direct access and on first name basis with Lebron James & Stephen Curry, and you work 25 - 60 times a year with possibility of making 10k per game if you officiate deep into the postseason.
Yeah, bro.
I'd say its a fairly lucrative and prestigious profession. You dont have to tell me that you want to be a NBA official for me to know if you were offered the job, the only notice your boss would have would be him noticing you're not at work tommorow morning. Don't be stupid and argue for the sake of having something to say.
