Rome's Doug Shows holding court at SEC tournament; NCAA next?
-Doug Shows probably has called more than 70 games this season and right now, he's in the middle of helping officiate the SEC Tournament at the Georgia Dome.
-The Rome resident has helped call the Final Four before and is hoping for another call to help officiate the NCAA Tournament, which starts next week. His goal: To call the National Championship game.
-In 17 years of officiating, he's seen plenty of changes. "The players have gotten bigger and stronger and faster over the years, so that makes it a little bit more difficult to officiate than 10 or 15 years ago," says Shows. Fans also have changed.
