And the official nearest the benches get to pick the biggest behemoth of a kid to ride the back of the smallest pipsqueak of a kid. I like this already!

Thumbs up This one is mandatory

OK - here's one that should be adopted at the NF, NCAA-M, NCAA-W and all rec levels. It's the most important rule change yet.

Following the game, the home team must provide a pizza and salad buffet free of charge to the officials. Coaches, players and spectators are not allowed in the room, and neither are official's wives. Following the buffet, Bambi will give free massages to all the officials. Tips are optional.

Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are (usually) unnecessary.

You forgot adult beverages. We actually get an ice cold can of beer after games at one of the private schools that our local board services. Really. I'm dead serious. I swear.

I've worked men's league games at a club where after the games they roll out a keg onto the floor.

Puns are for children, not groan readers.

"Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here"
