First of all there was a lot of sarcasm in my comments. I was being silly to make a larger point. Stop taking yourself and this discussion so seriously.

The reality is that these shorts look almost nothing like what an athletic person would wear or someone that has never been athletic. They look like coach’s shorts that look kind of silly and nonathletic to begin with.

And if you want to know the truth, I would never wear any shorts for a HS level game of any kind. This is not an issue for me at all. And I belong to a crew that never would and never has worn shorts for regular season games. If I wore shorts at all it would be the Pop Warner, Bill George type of games and early in the year when it is really hot. And for the record the shorts are the same shorts I would wear officiating basketball, the type I bought at Athletic Stores that you would buy to play basketball.

Peace
