Shorts

Do soccer officials look tacky wearing shorts?
Do the players look tacky wearing shorts?
In Ohio nearly ALL the officials wear shorts. When officiating in venues where the temps can get to 100 degrees +, black pants can be very warm. Sweat filled shirts and sweaty brows looks much tackier than two officials who are dressed alike and looking " cool ". While I respect you opinion, hundreds of officials accros the nation can't all be wrong. Nor can the NFHS when it allows states to circumvent this rule if the need arises. I will continue to wear shorts until mandated not to ( which by the way is 2009-2010 Season ).
