Rich,
I am very careful about not letting my frustation come through in a perceivable manner against any team. I should have been more clear in what I meant, and that was the sweet justice that takes place when that coach goes to other schools that I am working and sees how the other coaches accept me. I do thank you for the warning though, so I can give myself a self-check. The biggest disadvantage I do have as a female is all those annoying hormones that play into my emotions at different times. I have found that to be a deficit. For instance, when I received the news about this coach's comments, I cried and shook uncontrollably, then eventually threw up. My stomach was very upset during the trip to the games the following morning. Thank goodness I was able to pull it all together by game time! I can't blame it all on hormones, some of that emotion comes from my intense desire to go somewhere in my umpiring career. At any rate, thanks for any advice, pep talk, etc. any one has for me.
Jackie
