I agree that the Minor league umpires should be paid more, however, I won't lose sleep over any actions they may take.

They all made a concious choice, knowing full well that they will be making less money, for the opportunity to advance and potentially make it to the pinnacle of their profession. We all make those decisions about our futures every day. Sometimes we move forward, sometimes backwards, and sometimes we don't move at all.

I hope they don't decide on a labor action, those generally are lose-lose propositions for all parties involved.
