Interview with a Umpire

                                                                     


   

                                  "Nothing happens on the Football Field that's not planned"

But Tom Brady, this implies game outcomes may be determined by Referee Decisions? 

With the Superbowl approaching, eyes and ears will be on the Referees. They are fit and wear 

caps, with striped uniforms that have not seemed to have changed much. Most Football fans wear hats 

color-synced toward their favorite team.


It was only yesterday we watched magnificent Horses thunder down their field and "win by a nose."

Horse Racing fans have taken the headwear scene to a new level. Beautiful, flowing hats

worn by female fans just for the Horses and their Jockies?


WWE (Wrestling) Referees could take a vacation: Wrestlers smack each other with chairs and

objects. One may get tossed out of the roped ring. Referees do nothing? A Baseball Umpire would

 get mobbed under similar circumstances.


Fotball (Latin American) referees don't wear hats and should get Marathon Awards for scampering a

cross on such a huge field. With modesty, they hold up a Yellow Flag when they dispute something. 

The Umpire of Baseball stands with Darth Vader. Let's give the guy a vacation from his helmet and 

padding. Why not let the video and the cameras decide the balls, strikes or which "wins by a nose?"


Well, Tom Brady, which NFL coach will get the Gateraide Dunk" this season?
