just like Chuck said, the assigning fees down here in LA are $3 per game paid by the umpire during the season. I have it under good athority that the fees will be going up by a dollar a game sometime with in the next year or two. I personally dont really mind the fees since for the most part I have found that my assignors dont work that many games on their own and the duty of assigning is a long and tedious one. Not to mention you have to deal with people like myself that call once a week (ok, sometimes more than that) seeing if there are any games to pick up.
For the almost 3 to 5 hundred dollars I earn during the FED season alone... I have no problem giving up 60 of it.
