Rich - its good to hear that you got the umpire's backs.
I was very pleased when my assignor stood up for me when one of the coaches called him after the game, complaining. He even lied a bit for me, saying they were kind enough to stay an hour, they didn't even need to do that (if I had left right away, assignor may have been upset).
I hope you don't tell the coaches that "umpires can stay if they want to". Cause when its my time to leave, I don't want to hear "the last guy did it". Nor do I want to stay, because the next guy that does there games might want to leave.
