Sorry if I sound cold hearted today, but my friend, you just have to get over it.........descrimination is a part of life........especially in officiating...and Im not saying its right, but if you have been an umpire for any period of time you will have to have seen some of it in action........
How you deal with it is what separates you from the rest...........in sports officiating to have some descrimination come your way you only have to be too short, too fat,too skinny, have facial hair, glasses, long hair, short hair, no hair, an accent, too old, too young, be female, be white, black or asian, be new to officiating, be a long time vet of officiating.......
The one constant thing about descrimination in sports officiating is that it does not descriminate...........depending on who is doing the evaluation, no one is 100% immune.........
what can you do?........do the best you can. The rest will take care of it self........If a TD or league does not want me, I will not lose one game over it........there are plenty of games to go around.
