Remember that we're just getting into pre-season mode over here, before y'all beat me up, ok?  ;)

Most of the officials for this game are from Texas. And I'm sure you will all recognize the name of the Referee, none other than Bill LeMonnier.

Well Dommer, how's it go?  Can you believe you had to come all the way over to freeze your IDIOT off?  Bet it was cold in Austin.

Best regards,

Brad

Why the white knickers and not black pants?

You guys looked cold that is for sure.

Good job of what I saw. I did not tune in till late in the fourth.

Guys, he's NORWEGIAN !!
However cold it is in Austin, it probably felt like a Summer's day to him  ;D

I'm sure Einar did Europe proud. As for Mr LeMonnier, my crew and I are looking forward to hearing him speak at the British officials training clinic next month.

Warmer back home in Jessheim, Norway than in Austin, Texas actually!

Game went ok. Could sure tell it was 5 months since my last game. Some communication issues, but all in all, a fun experience!

I brought my black pants, but everyone didn't have them - hence the knickers.

Why did you change umpires?

To not have him die of hypothermia on the sideline, I guess.

Sorry, can't help you. I worked the game, and I got nothing except the shoes we wore (Adidas was the game sponsor). Perhaps you can check with USA Football.
