Pat, you said:
"Soccer is by far the easiest to officiate based on rules & mechanics. It is most difficult because the culture & philosopy of officiating has been transposed from other countries. Americans trying to latch on are challenged. Regretably, soccer-specific referees are defensive when officials from another sport jopin up. Don't ever tell them you officiate another sport or you'll be ostracised."
Right on brother, you it the nail right on the head.
