The good officials already have shown they are in charge by what they do not have to say, or the way they might say certain things and get respect off the bat, before the game even starts. You can call it a presence, or demenor and professional look. Whatever it is, I do not have to spend my time letting anyone know I am in charge when I umpire or officiate. I have accomplished that before the game even starts.

Peace
