Re: Now what I saw on Sunday.

I respectfully disagree with you. I went to the NCAA Rules Meeting and clinic in Chicago on Sunday. They held the Men's and Women's Meetings at the same time. Big Ten, Missouri Valley and many small college conference Officials attend this meetings. There were several officials that were there that had mustaches. Now they did not have goatees, but they did have mustaches. Many of them did.
That doesn't mean that they'll have them when the season starts. As has already been pointed out, some officials grow them in the off season and then shave prior to their first game. There maybe a few who don't shave them but not many.

As Rut said, the Dee Kantner look is pretty common. There are a lot of female officials who wear their hair in a pony tail. I don't believe that's an issue for them. i knoda like it!

Also, Rut can correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm sure he will, but don't many black men avoid shaving because of the skin irritation. Or is the linesman on our football crew feeding us bunk?
