There are items (topics) in there that are true and do exist. To turn a head and say they don't exist is poppycock (I hope I got that one right, Warren). Those that raise questions regarding these issues are not necessarily promoting the issues, rather, they are opening them up for discussion. Quite frankly, I can think of few better places to do it than an online forum. I don't feel discussing the issues, how to handle them, and how they affect us is wrong. Some dislike and are reluctant to address certain issues at times.
No, you don't understand.The 7 statements I made are POSITIONS taken by people on the Internet, sometimes on this forum; sometimes, on others.

Let's just do one at a time: Umpiring ain't that tough. Make it easy on us. No long-winded remarks about what I may or may not be doing about my adversaries. You say you'll be better, but this post wasn't much different from your previous ones. It's still all Carl's fault. Why should we believe Carl? Answer: Because I'm Carl and I have an international reputation for reporting the truth. That's why. If you don't like that, that your business. Your not liking it doesn't make it any less the truth.

Let's get serious.

Tim C says, repeatedly, "Umpiring ain't that tough." Do you agree with him: Yes or No. Your next post should be just one word.
