Note the flip-flop on the answer.

The Ump-attire folks came along and has several new things, the bag being one of them. A smart design that nearly to a one was immedaitely hated by the Old Guard. Why? You would think they had enough things to hate.

It's one of the bonds these Jewels Of Officiating have. You know, like tuffs in a street gang, all their hair slicked back the same. Lotta ex-military left in them.

Btw, ump-attire also rewrote the rules for websites which is why they have been succcessful. They understood marketing, Internet marketing in particular, while the others stood still, they yanked a huge chunk of the retail apparel market.

Back to the Jewels. They are the same ones who argue that a mask has equal protection as a helmet. Which is one other reason they think in circles. A few to the upside of the head, eh? lol
