I never said it was difficult. There is no reason to do it. There is a handy little loop on your shirt for your lanyard to clip to. Lot less work than reaching in your pocket. Same guy made the game about him, rather than about officiating and going unnoticed. not a fan.

And i guess you were there to see how he officiated. Over the top. Just like someone to take my words and make it about someone else. That is why I love this forum!

You made it seem as if your opinion was that all those that went sans lanyard were making the game about themselves. If that wasn't what you meant, then I apologize.

You meant that a guy who 1) worked without a lanyard also 2) drew attention to himself It was read (by some) as a guys who work without a lanyard draw attention to themselves. It's true that some officials try to "big-time" others. They might do so by wearing a college jacket, or the college wide-striped shirt, or discussing the "big V game they had last week" while working a rec league game, or by working without a whistle. They are usually found out. But, not all who do any of those items are "those" types of officials. |

Yes, this type of official is who I call a "hot shot." Like I said in another thread, which you so quickly dismissed...

That's what a discussion board is about -- commenting on posts. Personal comments -- not so much (but it happens).

I agree that that thread was possibly one where what you meant was not what was read by others -- "Hot Shots, who happened to go to camp" vs "all who go to camp are hot shots." |
