Oh, no, I've experienced that and it wasn't a lot of fun. I'm referring to umpires I have sent away.

I fully recognize that if I were to move to someplace other than NC, I'd get stuck doing the bottom rung games for a while.
Even in Cheeseland?

And you know what? That's okay with me because A) someone has to do it, and B) my assignor hasn't gotten to know me yet.

You assign the people you have based upon how certain you are that they can handle that level. JuCo games, while still important, are not D1A.
