Thus wonderful freedom is enjoyed.

That all sounds great, but when you work for people and you want to continue to work for people, you do what they ask or you do not work. And I like the freedom of working where I want to instead of having to work for one or two people with no other options.

Also since this would likely fall under regulations with our state, if you get suspended for being out of uniform, then you might not be able to work any HS games at all.

Just like the freedom we have in this country, it comes with a cost.

I think that as long as they don't have logos, you're OK. :)

ROFL. any thoughts? :p

If your assignor is anything like BillyMac's (see ahhh coaches thread) you may not get paid because you are in violation of the uniform code. Just something to consider.

haha bad news guys... no go on the hats... our game got canceled. the home team has a few guys goin outta town early, and injured player, and an ineligible. kinda sad.... wish i coulda done this last game with him. oh well. hes goin into the Local PD, and Im goin off to college. I took a baseball scholarship, so for now my officiating career has been put on hold. I think I was able to pick up six dates while we are still in pre-season, but other than that, my Fed ball is pretty much done with for the year :(
