The sooner you realize that this statement is wrong, the faster you will have better games!
The umpire's role is NOT to put up with a lot of abuse.
The umpire's role is to learn how to prevent abuse, to snuff out abuse if it happens, and how to punish those who abuse us. When you learn those three things you will never "put up with a lot of abuse," again.
We are not whipping boys.
