Wow, weÂ’re back to this again. My identity is a puzzle to you. Get over it - you were never good at this.

You made the statement that you were able to your college games just because you were available. I asked which games. You ignored it because you knew it would make you look bad. I asked you again and you changed the topic to basketball and football. Aren’t you one of the first guys to say, “Hey, this is a baseball board!” Nic try, you got caught by the guy who assigned you. Even JC told you that you made a mistake.

Who am I going to look bad to? Once again you put more much more stock in this place than I ever will.

Also, everything I say here I have said to JC before in person. This is nothing new or special. JC is a man like anyone else. We do not have to agree on everything.

Actually Jeff, I know a great deal about the college system in this country. I take paychecks from many of them for umpiring baseball games. Your jumble about five different U of WÂ’s doesnÂ’t hold water. Only one of them is in Madison. When people say that they are going to see a game in South Bend or that they went to school in South Bend, do you think they are as deceitful as you? Maybe they went to Holy Cross or saw a pick up game in a neighborhood gym. Better yet, maybe they saw that U12 tournament that you did at the University of Indiana at South Bend. YouÂ’re funnyÂ…not humorous, just funny.

Good for you. Do you want a cookie now?

No, you have your facts wrong. I said that I wasnÂ’t assigned games by him. I know him but Rich and I do not see eye to eye on a few things. I respect the fact that he has an opinion about how things should get done. I donÂ’t like the idea of having to work some junk ball for three or four years when I paid my dues a long time ago. Even JC will tell you that Fetch operates this way and it is a disgrace.

That is nice, but I personally do not care what you and Fetch agree on. Not only is that not my business, what does any of that have to do with the rest of us. Remember, you brought Fetch into this discussion. I do not know the man and I have never spoken to him about anything.

Your memory is selective. I mentioned what leagues I worked in when I first jumped on this site. I’ve mentioned multiple times where I went to pro school. My name was even mentioned here once or twice, I feel no need to revisit it. On the other site, not only did one of my partners “out me” and put my name for all to see, but he even put a link to the games so you could see that I had the plate and 3B for that nice little series. I never responded in public, but I had a few words with him about it. I feel little need to sit in the spotlight. I no longer work Independent Minor League Baseball in our area. I've mentioned which parks I worked at and who was playing. Others knew but you were left scratching your head..

I should care because.........?

I do my job and do it well – in my office, on the field or here. If it frustrates you that after four years I am still an enigma, then so be it. You've never been a scion of baseball judgement.

Good for you. Now tell us how many here care?

By the way, I did say that YOU donÂ’t work for Fetch. Read it again and then say youÂ’re sorry.

I was not the person that actually brought up Fetch, you were. Fetch was never on my radar. For some reason he was on your radar. Why don't you talk to me about Adams, Kelly, Lamps or Harmon? Then we can have a real conversation about something that is important to me.

That is my point, junior. You chastise me for not revealing my name, where I work or whom I work with, yet you mislead constantly. You said that you worked a game in South Bend. Why not just say the schoolÂ’s name? Oh, I think we all know the reason. 99% of the readers will think you must have worked a game at Notre Dame and you want to keep it that way.

Why reveal details to a troll when that troll cannot say anything about consistent about themselves? I did not reveal the school because I did not have to. What are you going to do, write a stern letter home to my parents? Are you going to tell me friends and other family members? If you knew anything about me (and you obviously do not) then you would know when I say South Bend, what school I was referring to. There are only a couple of people that can send you to South Bend from here and all you have to do is some math and that person will be revealed to you. I know one person here that would know exactly what I was talking about because he works for the very same person that sent me to South Bend. Funny, I also said I went to Milwaukee and you did not assume I said the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. So if I said I went to Green Bay would you assume I was talking about the Packers? I would be that he has been to South Bend too. South Bend is a town, not a school. Ann Arbor is a town not a school. Bloomington is a town is the home of 3 colleges. If you knew anything other than baseball, you would know where I was referring to. I just wanted to prove that you did not know anything as usual.

You should change your signature, Rosa Parks didn't display her courage so that malcontents like you could display their ignorance.

You do not have the right to even use the word courage. When you display some courage then come and talk to me about what Rosa Parks stood for. Bring your *** to Englewood and start running your mouth about Rosa Parks. I bet your little suburban behind would not last a minute. Little ***** *** mutha f@cker.

Peace
