Here are my top 3

1. Referee- Held at an impossible standard. Hated when you miss a call, no one cares when you get the call right

2. Kicker- Same thing as ref. Anything less than expected and you are the scapegoat.

3. Arkansas head coach- While program expectations are low by SEC standards, the school and football program prestige still makes it hard for most coaches to get to those 3-4 SEC wins a year. Even if you are a good coach capable of that, the boredom/depression of sustained residency in Arkansas leads most down a tumultuous road like an affair, in order to find excitement and maintain sanity. It's a no win situation, imo.

What are yours?

I disagree with all of them, especially #1. If you don't care about getting yelled at, being a ref is a great job.

I mean, I don't know about this. They were claiming to have made the far superior hire win Bert was winless in the SEC and Gus was playing for a natty. That's quite a lot of patience.

You sure haven't been to Northwest Arkansas then.

While I will admit 90% of the state sucks. NWA is a very nice area.
