Mick says it best. "Get in, get done, get out."

Unless the guy does something ultra-unprofessional, I would not report this to the assignor. Now if I am asked by the assignor, I will give my opinion. I just do not think it is my place to "rat" them out on my own.

If the umpire and I are on the same level, it is usually easier to talk to them if they are willing to learn or willing to discuss situation. When someone has accomplished everything, those umpires are harder to talk to. So you have to read the person and decide if it is even worth it to have a discussion.

Ultimately if the assignor put them on the game, there was a reason. It is not my job to start telling assignor who is worthy and who is not. If an umpire is that bad, the assignor will find out. Their body of work will tell on them. I do not need to add fuel to the fire.

Peace
