1. I've raised two teenagers. I don't need to raise another or deal with attitude.
2. Why do you choose to act like a punk when people try to help you? No wonder most who have stopped trying to help have not "come back."
Maybe three or four times since 1996, when I first became involved in sports part of the internet, have I been goaded into laying out my resume. I won't do that here. What I do dare to brag about is this: I am a damn good teacher. I am a damn good trainer of young and otherwise inexperienced umpires. Young men whom I have mentored are now working varsity and College level baseball. Two have gone to proschool, one to Harry's and one to Jim's. Both were honor graduates.
I have a good eye for the potential and attitude it takes to be a good umpire. Despite verbally slapping some rookies upside the head, I have the patience to come back to offer to help and see if they demonstrate any ability to learn.
I do not, however, waste my time on punks with attitude.
Have a great life.
