I agree with everyone's comments except for Rich's. I understand that you guys call a higher level of ball, but maybe your ignorance about Canada makes you think baseball is nothing here. I don't intend that to be an insult. It is taken very seriously, and it is competitive. It's not a bush league where people do not know what they are doing. I played with a guy who got drafted by the Marlins a few years ago. My city has about 60 umpires, so it's not like we only have 5 or so to go around.
I respect your opinions, and I realize that you guys most likely have more experience and such than me. But it seems to me that some of you think that you are above the game and that any umpire that isn't at your level is automatically not a good official.
I do not mean to offend anyone, and if I did then I apologize ahead of time, but those are just my two cents on the subject.
