I was a wide receiver and defensive back, so I like the reading fact of a back judge and watching the passing game as a wing. It comes down to what part of the game you understand the most and enjoy officiating.

I once heard that a Referee runs the game; the Umpire runs the crew. I was never a lineman either, but I love Umpire! I don't U higher level games because I'm 5'10" & 170#, but I do enjoy U.
