...that they stay in top physical condition, in order to try and keep up as best they can with 20 "something" year old guys, because these 20 somethings are moving a hell of lot more faster than 60 year old fat guys. I'm 42. I'm not as fast as I was at 25, my eyesights not as good, and my hearing ain't what it used to be. Now, when I see some 60 year old guy out there with a paunch, is his any better?

Also, your ideas of speaking engagements, and teaching clinics is also a great idea. Also, teams have mini camps, training camps, team meetings, etc., throughout the year. Have them do seminars with teams, educating them to rule changes, and what crews will be watching. Have them oversee practices to help instruct. In fact, some teams hire ex-refs or college refs to do exactly that. It would easily be a full-time job, and the tasks they could do would be limitless. These ideas are just scratching the tip of the iceberg. It would only make the game better. How could there be an argument against that?..:shrug:
