reply - mwf122090 2012/07/06 16:43:05HockeyYeah, if I had to choose a sport that I didn't want to ref, it'd be hockey. 100 mph puck flying at your face, plus sticks, skates, and huge men moving faster and faster plowing you into a wall....I'll pass!!!reply

- mblack 2012/07/04 11:36:18BaseballIt has to be baseball since the ball is not controlled once it is hit. You're generally hitting left or to the right or down the middle but that is it. football next since the ref's are usually in the mix with the players, they are routinely ran over knocked down and in danger for most of the game.reply

- Stryder 2012/07/03 21:43:56Hockey+1118 mph tennis ball is a picnic compared to getting hit by a 118mph hockey puck or a swinging stick. NHL refs get the crap beat out of them over the course of a season. So do MLB umps.reply
