I'm not sure you actually read my post before you quoted and commented on it. I definitely spelled out that it was 22 weeks in the preseason, and regular season. Yet I worked the numbers on a full time schedule of 40 hours a week for 50 weeks, not 22. Leaving a 2 week vacation, as the entire year is comprised of 52 weeks.
As for working in a different capacity during the off season. This is just creating something for them to do. Aren't those jobs in a different capacity currently being done by other people? To just invent something for each of them to do for 1200 plus hours a year during the off season, so we can all get the warm and fuzzies that they're full time officials is ridiculous.
I am 100% on board with making the refs accountable. I just dont think coming up with "busy work" for 16 crews of 7 people, for 1200 hours each is going to accomplish what many want and are thinking it would.
Specifically, what are these jobs in a different capacity that you have in mind?
