That might be what some people are saying. I know I think that position is absurd and not what baseball is all about. As I said before, "the world needs ditch diggers too." So if guys want to read more into what the rules say in both FED and NCAA, then that is their problem. OBR has nothing to do with other rules sets and I do not work enough OBR to care what they do compare to other levels. The rules in FED are not that complicated and are there for a reason. I work different levels in other sports; you just adapt and deal with the differences. If you cannot deal with the differences, do not work different levels.
