I still argue that wasn't completely my fault.
Yes, Andy is right of course... offseason events are a GREAT opportunity to start. (Right Jeff?) There are plenty of offseason events in the northeast you could volunteer at. This would give you some experience, and help you get your foot in the door for the actual season.
At least as a ref, your voice won't get hoarse. Unless you're one of those crazy head-refs that takes every opportunity to get on a mic and pander to the crowd. I imagine that is tough on the vocal cords.
