“But most of these guys stink. I have plenty of stuff to say about that; who'll start the thread?”

Ace, You may be 100% right or wrong, but the fact remains, that they are there and your not. Right now they are the best umpires in the LL WS and there’s nothing you and I can do about it.

Wait a minute, maybe there is. They got there, why can’t you?

I would love to officiate one of those games however, I don’t know the people to contact and of all the things I would love to do, this doesn’t rank as high as other things on the list. Many times I’ve hear criticisms of officials doing an important event, (and I'm just as much at fault), by officials not doing it. In most cases it just turns out to be jealousy.

All I can say if you do enough games, sooner or later you will get a chance at an important event and savor the moment. Of course, later, may be sooner than sooner, in some organizations. I think they call that politics????

PS: I didn't want to take the honor away from you from starting you own thread.
