illini,
You bet I fit the stereotype!!! I am 5'8" and 265. However, I can cover the 40 in less time than your Back Judge.
mcrowder, No offense taken. Being a "official" (I hate that term) teaches you to grow thick skin (as you know). I call myself an Ump because that is the position I work on my crew. In my opinion it is the best position to work a football game at because you get the real feel for the action and you normally can't hear the coaches that well.
