(I have been known to do some LL games at this level for free, but that's different. Besides, we scare those coaches and if they act up we make them go away.)

I did not say he was overpaid. I was posting that in response to the guy that said he got free uniforms at McDonald's. I posted that to show that a guy who shaves and votes and takes a job should know a little bit about what he is doing when he is getting my money.
I remember the first time I ever officiated anything...I was the line judge for volleyball at my High School when I was in the 9th grade. I made sure to go over everything to make sure I knew what I was doing because they were PAYING ME. I was only 15 years old at the time.
Whatever wrongs you think I committed, it is nothing compared to someone taking money for a job and not trying to do it well. What about the tournament people who collected a lot of money and got umpires who had never seen a baseball game.
