Ya know Steve I can select to make any determination as to who is or not a "real umpire."
I would surely expect an up and coming MiLB umpire to not respect umpires that work non-professional games. It is drilled into them over-and-over -- "hate your partner cuz you'll have to climb over his not yet cold body to get to the biggest stage."
Steve, I would suggest that on "my list" of requirments to be a "real umpire" would follow some sort of "experinece+education+quality of baseball umpired+size of diamond= Real" type equation.
To paraphrase Potter Stewart: "When I see one I know it!"
And SDS, I don't see them thar guys on small diamond games.
I have been called arrogant, caustic, condescending and conceited . . . I guess we should add: judgemental.
Regards,
