After all, it's much easier to be an Internet umpire and pretend to tell real veteran umpires what they ought to do on the ball field.
My abilities are well-known by many who have worked with me, so I'm not worried about a couple people claiming they know what's best.

I never said I know what's best. Just different philosophies, which we're all entitled to.
I think ejections are a good thing. The first 15 years I called, I tossed a lot of coaches & players. Maybe that's why I don't have to anymore.
BTW, since my first post in this thread, I do remember tossing a coach in a Legion game last summer. Didn't have to bait him into it. 1st base coach made a comment about my partner's strike zone. I told him I'd heard enough. He didn't listen. Next time I dumped him.
