To OP. Congrats on becoming a sports official for HS sports. It is a great time commitment but there is a lot of fulfilment that comes with it. I have officiated HS soccer for 20 years but this year I am taking a pause in the action and will mentor the young ones. My knees are a mess and replacement is imminent. In that time I have only had one 'encounter' and it was mild. A lady fan of the worst team in the area offered me her glasses after one match. Listening to the fans is one thing I tell the new referees NOT to do. Few of them played soccer, so they generally are not aware of what they are yelling about. Alas, football is different as everyone in the stands thinks they are Ed Hochuli. Advice. Know the rules intimately and be confident of your calls. That will reduce fan's abuse.

Like others have said, Get Fitted. I did that and it will make a difference.

Hyde Park was a fun course to play when my buddies and I just started to play as juniors. We drank milkshakes after the round while waiting for one of our mom's to pick us up. I still have the putter.

Johnny Unitas.

That is one of my favorite movies. Alan Arkin was great in this and so many other flicks. RIP

What would possess this knothead to throw a $1200 phone ? Absolute stupidity. Hopefully the judge will throw the book at this clown at the trial.

While working our company had a Cadillac dental plan. The health care plan was a Chevy Chevette.

Mrs. Lew and I are retired 3 years now. We dont miss work at all. Hobbies ..I golf and Mrs Lew reads Volunteering. We both volunteer at a soup kitchen once a week. There are 20 churches and organizations that rotate the other days. Church. We are both on committees and I am a camera operator for the live streaming of the service. But the best thing we do is watch the two grandkids. Best job ever. my only advice is before you retire , get all your dental work done. i.e. crown, root canal, etc Let the companies dental insurance pay for that.

RIP Commander Tom !

I remember seeing the "Original Shiek" rasslin' at the the Aud. While he was praying to Mecca, someone threw a donut and hit him square in the face. He went nuts and bloodied the heck out of his opponent, (Who I cant remember). The Aud had some great wrestling shows back in the day.

A & E Network has a series of shows on Sundays about WWE WCW and other wrestling stories. June 4 had a 2 hour segment about the Iron Shiek. He was a great "heel'

I do the laundry once a week. Friday mornings. 3 loads Dark colors, light colors, whites. There was an incident with bleach and my favorite Sabres shirt (Black Red and White) became somewhat black, a lot of pink and white. Mrs. Lew was relegated to put the clothes away duty after that.

Barney Fife

We saw Chicago a few years ago and the main part of the concert was to play Chicago II straight thru. a short break and then several other songs as the encore. It was a fun concert.

In October, Ringo Starr and his All Star band here in WV. My grandson loves the Beatles, so this will be a treat for him.

1969 VW Beetle 1976 Firebird 1978 Ford Fairmont (hated by Mrs. Lew) 1982 Buick Century 1986 Ford Aerostar (2 kids ) 1991 Toyota Camry (stick shift) ???? Saturn L200 2009 Chevy Impala 2018 Subaru Outback Is Abc123 a strong password?

Joe Kapp was tough as nails. I am glad I was able to see him play on TV when he led the Vikings

Add me to the "Wishing there was a Wegmans Near me club" Alas I highly doubt there will be a Wegmans in WV as Krogers rules the roost. I have flown twice to MCO and both times were a pain.

The answer to your dilemma is YES. This is great

"Say Anything"

Many years ago, I had a manual transmission car and visited Atlanta for a convention. The convention was downtown and my left leg got a great workout. Took the shuttle the second day.

Montserrat singing with Freddie Mercury the song Barcelona was epic.
