2. Don't let your social conservative knee jerk responsive attitude get in your way of seeing that suggestions are just that....something to think about, not reject immediately as patently wrong [and join the Muslim Mujahadeen attitude].

3. Get a life! If the opportunity to help a fellow ummpire presents itself, don't hang him out to dry. Too many "Carls" and "gurus" and "hard *** teachers" will perform an on field crucifixiion of their partner and say after the game to themselves, "too bad, poor sap, he deserved what he got for being such a dumb ***"......

4. Compassion conquers the consequences of a bad call which can be made right.


Noble concepts- in any sport.

Completely idiotic application recommended by you- in any sport.

Worst advice possible- in any sport.

Hey, you are getting paid though, as you said. You've got one thing going for you anyway. One.
