Dave. You are always a stand up person. You played in this league at a high level for years. You know the game. Umpiring is a thankless job. I have done it. I am horrible. Our umpires get paid to make calls. The call it the way they see it. Thete is no electronic equipment to determine if they are right or wrong. Umpire registration is dropping each year. There is gonna come a time where we will Umpire our own games. All the umpires are friends of mine. Lets give them a little respect. They di the best they can and they do make mistakes. They don't yell at players for making mistakes.

You see umpires in MLB and even in the LL world series. Some were downright horrible. What makes yiu think our local umpires are going to be right all the time. They call it the way they see it. We may see it differently, but what the umpire sees is what we go by. Lets try to keep that in mind. Thanks.
