I think you may have had some of all 3 notes, but mainly OOO - without that one, the rest wouldn't matter. They're adults, treat the sunglasses like jewelry. If/when they fall off and get stepped on - not your problem.

Dave,

I think you went looking for boogers. Do you make sure everyone's shoes are properly tied so no one will trip over them and hurt themselves?

After all, part of the uniform and needs to be worn properly, right? :cool:

IMO, referring to glasses of any type as jewelry is a stretch and simply an attempt to justify controlling something not covered in the rules. But, like I said, it is JMO.

needless to say, gotta line up with the others.

I've never had it be an issue -

I'm not big on any of the fashion rules.

So I dont anticipate it ever will be an issue.

I wouldn't qualify glasses as jewelry - like I said, I consider them like a hat.

As far as picking nits, yeah, in hindsight, I kinda figured I did. Not quite sure what's been with me lately, to be quite honest. Seems like my head just isn't on straight, and I'm managing the players and not the game. Maybe I'm just cranky and tired of dealing with sh1theads on the field, which I admit is a bad combination. Fortunately, we're in playoffs now, so the season will be over soon. Should be a nice, 2-month break!

As for the shoelaces, if I happen to glance down and see 'em untied, I let 'em know. Not because they're not worn properly, but because I'm nice like that. :)

I tell the managers at the before-game conference to tell their players to either wear the sunglasses on their face or not at all. It is a safety issue with me and I have yet to have anyone argue with me about it.

I dont call time for tying shoelaces unless they ask for time and those of you that do irritate me. Just FYI. :cool:
