Hustle and knowing the game of Basketball rules and knowing how and when to administer the rules gains one the respect that you need to have to move up the ladder.

First impressions of a good clean cut, well pressed uniform means nothing until the ball goes up for opening tip. The whistles that happen there after will determine and make the impressions needed.

I am 6'5" 235 lbs. I Hustle, have a well pressed uniform, call a good game in my standards. I work the big games and the small ones all around Ohio. I have had a goat on my face for a while and it does not detract from my being able to do my job on the floor.

Barnie Fife could walk out on the floor well pressed, clean shaven, and not be able to administer the game appropriately. His first impressions might have helped initially...but when the whistle starts going...Barnie has problems.
