If you only had a clue. Do you honestly believe your BS? Do you think we are not aware of the advantages of warm-weather teams. Then again, many of the girls on the east coast actually have a life outside of softball and aren't dumb enough to chase that scholarship carrot.

I also doubt you would have a very good time out here trying to sell our 14-18U/G coaches that a drop ball was "really in possession at the time of the tag, until she dropped it, so its an out".
What's the matter, no balls for tough calls? Every year that we have had CA teams here, the coaches have always gone out of their way to thank the umpires after the tournaments.

That may work out there.. it doesnt wash in the home of softball land.

So heres your reminder.. stay in DE.
Don't have a problem with that. I've worked with some good umpires from your area and many other parts of the country. I'll take any of the umpires from this region any day, any tournament.

But I have a little problem keeping them in DE. I have umpires that are being requested to work nationals without their names even being submitted. Wonder why that is?
