Come on, ref, get out of the way!

I will head down to Diamondback Arena this afternoon to call four games between Magazine and Eureka Springs. And inevitably I will miss quite a few calls because an official will be blocking my view of the play. In fact, more often than not there seems to be a ref in the way. I really do not understand how the big-time announcers do it. Maybe they have spotters. The scoreboard operator who sits next to me is good to help me out, but she has her own problems keeping up with the play - and anyway, the call on a big play somehow loses a little of its impact if it is several seconds too late.
