I go out on the field looking freshly pressed and neat every single game. I know guys that go out and never iron a pant or even put a brush to their shoes - but thank God they aren't patent leather. At least they are following protocol!

You complete missed the entire point of the post.
By "not saying anything" about the patent leather, your supervisor is failing to pass along to you the mandates made by the entities I mentioned in my previous post, therefore not doing as requested by them. Subsequently, the umpires in your area who are working NCAA ball are not getting the information that they should have, the not wearing of patent leather only being a small part of this information. This is exactly how these types of programs begin to break down. This is where the disservice I mention occurs.
