I understand where you're coming from, Peter, and I have to endure some of it with my assignor. If I call a game the way he wants me to call it, whether it be changing calls, ignoring balks, or saying the hands are part of the bat, I'll probably end up getting better assignments FROM HIM.
However, advancing to higher levels of ball probably won't happen, because the assignors of those higher levels won't put up with that type of Mickey Mouse umpiring. I guess if you're happy with the level of ball you're calling now, and don't mind selling out to the demands of Smitty the Assignor and the ignorant league administrators, I won't stop you. If you want to advance your officiating career, you better start learning how to call a game the RIGHT way.
