First of all, as a veteran umpire, you had every right in the world to school those two kids on umpiring, irrespective of your position as a coach in the league. Done elegantly, it's a benefit to the younger, inexperienced umpire to have any veteran help him with his game. Secondly, if those kids popped off like that to anyone, and took that superiority thing to that extreme, they'd be gone if I had anything to do with it. They sound like the other extreme: young, yet arrogant and closed-minded. Who needs young umpires with those qualities?
