Can We Get Back To Umpiring-a plea

Dear Hayes,

I don't know you but I can tell you my visits to "the Boards" in general have been less frequent than I would like. One reason why I joined here as a PAID Member is simply because I don't want to put up with the petty BS that goes on at McGriff's and elsewhere. I come here to be enlightened or at least challenged about baseball umpiring. I'm not going to defend Carl's quirks. His insults are just as counterproductive as anyone else's. However, when he focuses on umpiring, even at 2:00 am, he gets my attention. If you have a real difference with Carl please take it "off-line". Write him a nasty note or something.

Thanks for your consideration. Jim/NY
