The difference between them and you is that they are trained, they know the rules and mechanics, the present a professional appearance and work with confidence. My son and I met up with them in their dressing room after the game and not once did either of them whine about their height or age.

OTOH, I remember, when I started refereeing, someone making a comment about my size (I was a little too heavy then, but, then again, so was the player in question!), something like "Why don't you go eat a vegetable or something?!" but I didn't end up calling anything for it, because I couldn't actually believe that he had said it!

This thread is probably going to be one that goes on for months, getting about one response every two days.
If anyone thinks that height doesn't make a difference in the way people percieve an umpire, check out this post from a credible source, and yes it is a link to another website: http://www.umpire.org/modules.php?na...=5039&start=30 |

I think this thread has run it's course. Like you said, the responses are few. It is now closed. |
