The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He's a lawyer.
    His last name is difficult to spell.
    He's one of the people responsible for slowing down football games.
    There is a 13-year age disparity between his five children.
    His large arms have earned him the nickname 'Guns.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is the most recognizable official in the league today.
    He is well-respected in the NFL community.
    His first NFL officiating gig was in his home state of Wisconsin, in 1990.
    He puts his kids and grandkids before either of his jobs.
    He is just as big and buff as a lot of the players.
    About players who yell at officials, he said: 'If I let a coach or a player get himself flagged by what he said, I have failed in part of my job to keep him from doing that, because I'm the one that's supposed to be cool and level-headed.'
