I do not work games for free.

Umpiring is an avocation I enjoy. It is one that I have spent countless hours and much cash on to try and become better at.

No call I made/make has ever had the cash component built into it.

I believe we all in some degree umpire for the money. That is not a bad thing, nor does it make the person(s) who pursue umpiring for this reason bad people or bad umpires.



P.S. It is very difficult to ignore havingafitump if you keep quoting his drivel.
