I can see the last two issues (travel and anti-discrimination) as important for the refs, but the first one I feel the NBA has a right to require fitness and possibly weight (% fat?) criteria.
Why do you feel that way? Is it a question of job performance or mere appearance? Obviously, a certain level of fitness or appearance will affect job performance; but then why not just judge based on job performance? Why have additional criteria at all?
