Unhappy answer the ?

But sir, you all continue to refuse to answer the question; Like all the politician's do, ask a question or try to turn your shortcomings around on others. Simply stated, since crowhopping/leaping at present is illegal, why blue, do you refuse to call it, picking & choosing from tournament to tournament which rules will actually be called? Girley ball is what everyone calls it & frankly, it's embarrassing & degrading to the game of softball. Therefore, names like Hopperman & hopperwell will continue until you all have the guts to call a game by all the rules until such time that the rules are actually changed. Thank you & this isn't about me & what I want, it's about the game of softball!

As you freely admit, Leaping/hopping are still, at this time, against the rules & until the powers that be make it legal, blue, you should call it & bring a little credability back to the game of softball, that's all I'm saying! Why does it seem we're picking & choosing the rules we're going to follow & not following the rules as they presently stand? Girlie ball!?Untilyou step up to the plate & call the infractions of hopping & leaping, the Cat Hopperman & A. Hopperwell jokes will continue! What a joke!



Have you ever worked a game? That seems to be a question that has gotten lost in here. If you have then please, pretty please with sugar on top tell me where I can see you work, because obviously you are better than Davis, Edds, Bark, and any number of people that have worked NCAA regional, super regional and College World Series'. I have seen those umpires work and the three that I have mentioned are probably the 3 best I have ever seen, and obviously you are head and shoulders better than them.
I am sure that every member of the ASA National UIC staff have you on speed dial and they specifically request you to be on there staff for every National that they UIC. I know that Jeff Hansen has sent you countless invitations to work Regionals and WCWS's and you have probably just been to busy to accept any of them.
