Ask this yoyo if he'll send me a PM and I'll explain to him that he is either to dumb to umpire (i.e. does not understand the checked/unchecked swing issue) or doesn't have enough guts to make the call (or have his umpires have the courage).

I HATE people that say you can't make this call from inside.

I never say: "No, he didn't go!"

Regards,

Added Note:

After reading some of the posts by our younger umpires (not Canadaump BTW) I believe in the axiom:

"Children should be seen and not heard."
