What schools do they have for people who want to be NBA referees? I wouldn't mind being a referee myself. I know they get paid good money & i'm tired of watching these old ass refs making terrible calls game after game. A lot of these refs that are in the NBA are too old & they need to be replaced with some new blood. I think a lot of the old refs have bad eyes & can't see cause a lot of them make terrible calls. I see why the players & coaches get upset with them.
