In fact, I believe for the rulebook enthusiast, "getting it right" is probably more in line with the rules than maintaining this air of perceived bullcrap that you will be looked at as indecisive, if you change your call.

That to me is more of an EGO and control problem if anything else.

So have at me boys because you have to have balls to umpire and be real good too. Making the right calls when there tough is what your there for. I call that, earning your pay baby.
That's all well and good, but changing a foul ball to a fair ball on a live play is not a good thing. Tengo huevos aqui, pardner!
