When have you ever met, seen or read anything written by my son? Like maybe, never?
When he was your age he was working state high school and legion tournaments and college games. Unlike you, he never whined on internet boards about his treatment and he never posted anything bragging about his abilities. In fact, he has never posted on an umpire web site.
He recently finished his first year as a MiLB umpire and from what he has been told by evaluators, he's about as good as he thinks he is. (He thinks he needs to continue working hard and improving to stay in the game.)
As for me, point out a post where I described my abilities or performance level. If, in your mind, you have assigned me to a level of umpiring from the collective posts I've written, that's your opinion. I've never said that I was good, great, mediocre or crap.
When I've discussed my son with you it has only been to demonstrate that young people do not have to be held back by their youth. They can be dedicated. They can work hard. They can save their money and go to school and they can succeed. They don't have to just piss and moan about how they aren't appreciated by their assignors and then write one idiotic post after another.
I'd love to meet who you got your "word" from. One of you is a lying POS.
C'mon down little one. If you want to see what kind of an umpire I am, I'll schedule a double header and we'll work together if I can find a level you can handle. Our association doesn't handle anything below high school, but I have friend who assigns 9 and 10 year olds.
By the way, you are far too modest. You're already an arrogant prick. One doesn't have to be accomlished or experienced to excell at that. You're proof.
