Do you need more proof of why they have self perpetuating jobs?
Like I said, some umpire watched a ball get caught and called 'Foul' because of a brain fart. It's one thing to have Hopkins continue with his annual cerebral flatulence. It's quite another to have rules in effect 'because' umpires make mistakes. We already know that we can and should correct other calls.
This is just another reason why I stay away from all but a handful of High School games. That and I don't like to call fair balls foul.
