Jackets. Phooey.
The latest in the "let's pretend" philosophy of officials association pomposity is jacket requirements.
"Let's make believe we're NCAA-1 or NBA! They wear jackets during warm-ups! Let's be like them! We make $71 per game! Let's all go blow a couple of game fees and buy one so we can look like our heroes! So what if the gym is already sweltering after a GV, a JVG and a JVB we'll look just like the guys on TV! Hot moms take notice!"
