I agree with you both, really.

I agree with Lathum that what really needs to happen is that leagues need to take a zero tolerance policy, stick with it, and eventually make these games accessible to younger referees, getting them to stick with it for longer, which helps both the pipeline and the costs. Youth sports is too pay-for-play these days anyway.

But Flasch echoes my main point, which it's going to take a lot to bring refs back and to convince younger refs to go out there, especially when they can make similar or more money baby sitting, dog walking, etc....
