And my point was and still is that how an official looks does not equate in any way to the way that an official does his job. I have seen some absolutely great NCAA officials who like a Before ad. I have seen statuesque pretty-boys who just aren't very good at all, and disappear when the negative evaluations start coming in. I know some very slow officials who still know how to get into good position and also how to maintain that good position. I know some fast officials who are out of position more often than they're in position.

Iow, you can't judge officials on appearance imo.
