Oh please. For a plumber, you sure seem to get upset by little s***.

Everyone knows what he means, and everyone knows he means " ... while on the court" or "while officiating." If you want to disagree with his advice in this (or any other) thread, fine.

I apologize. I didn't know you were so sensitive.

Is that how you measure the worth of a man, by how much money he makes?

I measure his worth by the number of posts he has on the forum.

I think it's pretty clear you're the only one here who's upset.

P.S. How was my grammar in that sentence?

Does it really need saying that "don't be a plumber" isn't a shot at plumbers? It's a shot at people who approach a job with the mentality of another.

I thought it was quite obvious that Freddy wasn't being serious (insert some emoticon that gets that point across).

It's not like the player was being a plumber with low-riders or anything.
