Tim , you are absolutly right about your opinion, and I believe that body art is just as much a distraction as a pony tail but, as you said we are both entitled to those opinions.
The point here is, just as we perceive the ability of an official by their appearance (and it definitely happens), we perceive others by what they say and do.
"Goof, dumb, idiot, moron, critical of every one," well my peception of that person is a someone that feels as though riducule of others is necessary for them to be noticed. Someone looking for attention at the expense of others. Someone that thinks with their mouth rather than their brain when out on the field, A hothead, a cowboy. My perceptions may be totally wrong but, as we agree, I am entitled to them.
Given my choice , I probably rather work with the pony tailed official.
And the fact that he doesn't get the bible reference, just reinforces my perception of him.
Am I being critical of him, yep but, I have a right to my opinion.
