HOBBIES
I have no hobbies other than my kids. Officiating is a huge time expense, a time cost; and with that many kids, and I now have five grandkids, there is so much going on all the time. I try to create time for the rest of my life — the kids and my wife, and I spend a lot of time going to their things and trying to include them in my life. | | |
Officiating.com will feature a series of interviews with prominent NFL and college officials, supervisors and coaches. This is the first in that series, and we elected to begin with our discussion with Ed Hochuli, President of the NFL Referees’ Association. Ed is a great ambassador for football officiating; a bright, engaging guy, and has some excellent insights for officials at all levels. We hope you enjoy this series.
