Oh, and simply asking a head coach when I should call a balk is not being verbose. He told me I couldn't call a balk. I asked him under which situations it is acceptable to call one. He then swore at me. I appropriately ejected him.

You just can't accept the fact that I am still successful as a college umpire, despite having a few ejections per year.
The post you made describing exactly what you said detailed an encounter in which you were verbose.

I couldn't care less about your "success." You unprofessionally baited a coach and then ejected him. Then you posted it and bragged about it. That puts you in your place and you did it yourself. You can defend your lack of restraint and professionalism all you like, it's still not the way most umpires choose to operate, and your results demonstrate why.
