You guys do a tough job, I called a little league baseball game[b] once[/b].....I didn't think I would get out of there alive.  ;) :D

My hat is off to you, but I could not do your job I just don't have the constitution for it.  ;D

I feel your pain..that's why I'm an umpire, I work with the linebackers and linemen, none of us like to run too far..It's those 2 guys on the sidelines that have to run, but they don't mind, it gets them away from screaming coaches!..lol...

Everyone who referees, imo is doing so for the same reason...they have a love for the game. They don’t choose to put themselves in a position to be criticized because of the pay..:D....They just want to give back to the sport that they have spent their life around. No one is perfect and bad calls are inevitable. They are the last thing that the people who bear the responsibility of making these calls want to happen. So don’t chastise a ref the next time a call doesn't go the way you wanted. Instead, shake his hand after the game and tell him he called a good game. At the end of the day, he shares the same passion for the sport and loves the game just as much as you........ 8)

Thanks and amen brother! Peolpe always ask how we could put up with the abuse. I love the game so much it's just Texas High School football and then waiting for Texas High School football. I get goose bumps every Friday night that I'm standing out there on the 50 and the  flag's flying and the anthem's playing...CANT WAIT..
