What's the story with Northern Virginia? First an earthquake. Then a hurricane. You guys must have done something really, really, bad to piss off the Big Guy? What's next? Locusts?

The guy who wants to give a rules clinic on every call, and engages the coach every time he makes a sound. You can usually spot him in the captain's meeting.

Oh, and the guy who can't stop taking about hot moms in pregame. Mainly because it's just annoying.

A great example, for many, of big-timing.

I do not think anyone really does this out of big timing. I think this is done more out of total ignorance. I see more younger and newer officials wearing these jackets than I see those that actually work those games on a regular basis.

Actually, we had a terrible drought prior to the earthquake and hurricane.....but, overall, it could be a lot worse. I had some downed tree limbs, but we have power and no flooding here.

Best of luck to everyone.

Glad to hear that you are fine. It is a mess in several places back there.
Take care.
