When the NBA begins the preseason today and then when the regular season goes on, we are a little afraid of what’s going to happen with the referees. They have been having big trouble coming up with a good contract for the referees for the last little while. While we can hope for an agreement to be reached, it doesn’t look very good at this point. For the moment, it looks like we’ll have to deal with replacement referees and that’s it. This is too bad, because there are lots of better possibilities and the replacements aren’t necessarily as good as the real ones. We like our officials and we hope that they will be back soon to lead us through the season. When they see that they are being slowly replaced, maybe they will wizen up.
