I'm not getting grief. I usually get what I deserve. And it's almost always positive, because I am almost always early, ready, hustling, authoritative, responsible and in adherence with the codes and standards of umpiring, because I love the game, and the umpiring profession. You are not judging me fairly at all.
And if you
don't think that youth umpiring forms high school parents' opinions of umpiring, then you are not really judging that fairly, either.
