I bring my gear in a hefty trash bag and don't actually use mechanics. What does that make me?

We've go some tranfers on our local board that come dressed in uniform for a high school game, don't shower, and just walk out of the gym to the parking lot after the game.

I prefer a garment bag. My uniform comes out with less wrinkles.

I use a roller suitcase. I have 2 clothing folders in my bag. 1 for pants (2 pair) and 1 for shirts (with & without flags and regular and side panel shirts). I have my jacket in a protective bag. The only thing loose is my sox and under garments. Whistles/lanyards in a small pouch. Everything stays neat.

If your undergarments were tight, you wouldn't need a whistle. You could just screech.

I didn't know you worked baseball and football in California. I'm sure we've worked together before.

Guilty as charged.

For basketball I use a roller bag, even for Fed games. But I bring my Fed mechanics to those games.

The president of the coaches association spoke to our officials association last year. He poked a bit of fun at us for coming in pulling our little bags looking like we were late for a flight. He's kind of got a point. Where else in the "real world" does anybody pull a wheelie bag except at the airport?

Not that I'm giving up my bag!

Nah, I've dropped 30 pounds over the summer. In fact, I don't think I'll need the 40 gallon lawn bags this year.
