I've heard this mantra before, and I just don't buy it. We wear other things players aren't allowed to wear. We aren't players, we don't have the same uniform requirements. At some levels, players are allowed to wear far more than the officials are.

And frankly, there's no way I would ask a partner to tape down a medic alert bracelet. It's just pointless. When we start going for rebounds and playing defense, then I'll buy into the idea that we should be adhering to the same jewelry standards as the players.

As it is, for us, wedding rings and medical alert stuff are fine. Earrings, out. Nose rings, out.
