I know you're just the messenger but this might be the dumbest thing I've heard in a while. But I'll admit that the "no 'stache or beard" thing is something I've heard...urban myth? legend? unwritten code? who knows but I know a couple of succesful refs who wear a mustache. If an assignor tells you he would hire you if you took off the mustache then do it...otherwise don't bother.

Drop the 25 lbs, keep the mustache, let us know how it goes!
