I try to remember that at associaton meetings because the local LL assignor is a member or our group. But it has become an ingrained habit that is proving hard to break.
Most of us who refer to LL umpires use the term as a generic one for little boy ball. Like it or not, in many place of the country Little League has lost it's control of its brand much like Kleenix, Xerox and Asprin.
