umps say a physical throw is necessary to rule INT on the runner

umps think the BU is responsible for plays/runners tagging at 3B

umps not knowing what an intentional dropped ball is, by and INF <2 outs, runner on 1st...

umps not knowing that all overthrows are 2 bases from TOT (batter hit ball to LC, runner on 2nd thought it might get caught so he "tagged", ball was caught on short hop, SS cut the ball off, runner had long since rounded 1B, SS threw to 3B, but went into DBT, ump said "I cant award the BR 3B on a single to the OF" and yes he was aware that the runner was past 1B when the SS threw the ball

do I need more examples, or has my point been made?

Ok. I can do an outstanding job. Is this league near NO VA?
