I have a problem with those that think it is OK to do the "wrong" thing purely because they know there is no punishment.

Now I am more confused. Watching my Villanova team beat #17 Marquette, I noticed something about the ref "uniforms". Two of the officials had flag patches on their left sleeves, one with stars forward, one with stars backward. Huh ??

I've also seen college basketball crews where one of the officials had no patch, and where one had a white border around the flag and the other two had gold borders. So much for uniform. |

The appropriate way to wear the Flag patch on a uniform shirt is to have the field of stars closest to the heart. On the left sleeve or breast, the Flag would look "normal", and on the right sleeve or breast, it would look "backward".
