A 19 year old kid, who may never have worked a game, is better than a D1 guy, after only 5 weeks of school and a couple of weeks of PBUC - - - man I didn't know umpiring was that easy.

Yes. It is getting funny. I went to umpire school twice. After my second year and going to a local clinic to prove my skills, I was given a 25 game D-1 schedule at age 20 or 21 not sure. I was only 2 years out of high school and knew a lot of the kids playing at the local schools. So if you are saying that a rookie umpire cannot umpire D-1 baseball that is the joke. They can do it as good or better than some of the D-1 umpire out there.
