[QUOTE=Forksref]Well, let's get started: In our area, replacing a wing or R means you will be filling huge shoes. Replacing the U means you will be filling huge knickers!
And I thought they put me at U for my knowledge of the game!
I too am a big guy, 6'1" 285#. And it is very seldom that I get knocked down, but it has happened, and I am sure it will happen again. That is just one of the joy's of being an Umpire.
The BJ on our crew is great, alway's in the correct position, alway's talking to let everyone know that he is there if the wings have their back turned, and he is alway's hustling to relay the ball if the play is dead and there is no one in his area that he has to watch.
In rural Oklahoma, there are very few countdown timers on the field, unless you are calling a large school. our BJ counts down from 10 with a side hand chop so that the Offense knows how much time they do have.
