He still has some work, but ... he's got a solid foundation, solid work ethic, and his age has never been a problem on the field. Most of the "problems" come from grousing old vets who often change their minds after they see him work...
I assume you're talking about Adam... and yes, he's solid. He started umping for us at what, age 16? He's good. I've worked with him as a fellow blue, and been a coach (shh, don't tell anyone) for a team he's officiated. He's a hard worker.
