I suppose if you get paid by the word it makes sense to "always have a take" on things.

Of course, it also makes makes to speak as if there's more than half a brain behind the sh1t that comes out of your mouth.

By the way, I could care less about Jim Burr as an official who gets plays right, cause I think he gets just a few more right than Steve Welmer (who doesn't get many) but I respect the man for what and how has contributed to the game and for the many yrs. of service he has provided. I believe he is truly a legend in the officiating community and should be in the hall of fame when and if he ever retires.

Nice dig at Welmer.

If he wasn't at the top of his game, he wouldn't get hired anymore.

It IS that time of year again, isn't it?
