I love sports. It is the highest paying part-time job I've ever had; (you should try waiting tables or telemarketing as a part-time job to make you appreciate officiating). I like the kids and enjoy watching them play and improve. It's good exercise. I make a lot of friends (and enemies!).

Mr. Referee

Hello Mr. Referee and how do you do
I just started football, so this is all pretty new
There's much I'm not really sure about
And it means a lot when you help me out

I haven't been playing for very long
So let me know if I do something wrong
Tell me and show me the proper way
And guide me as I learn to play

This game can be so very rough
And I'll do my best to play it tough
But please understand my youthful fears
And please be there to comfort my tears

Teach me respect and show me some too
For helping me grow is the challenge for you
My game's not as big as others you'll do
But it's important to me and it should be to you

All I ask is that the game be played fair
With special concern for safety and care
Officiate wisely and call what you see
But if there's no advantage, then just let it be

May the better side win and I'll go home with pride
If I've done my best and I know that I've tried
And remember sir, when it's all said and done
The game is ours and we're here to have fun.
