I agree with bigdawd here.
This bashing isn't sovling anything. We apply the rules of the association
that has hired us to officiate the game. AFA, ASA, NSA, USSSA, NCAAA, NHFS,
even USFA or NFSA. You knew going in what was expected. If you don't like it,
don't accept the assignment. All umpires, regardless of which of the groups
they belong will make mistakes. Is one group better than the others. Probably
not, it is the individuals doing the games that make them what they are. We
have all pounded NFHS because of some of their chosen rules, but we have
also bickered about the other associations. They all have a rule that none of
us probably like, but we choose the games and tournaments we want to call. So
apply the rule, drink a brew and spew over it after the game. Lets get back
to doing what most all of you do best, discuss the rules, not blast someone
because they disagree with the way they are handled.
