After reading and responding to the assignments post below, I really find it hard to fathom the idea of individual assignments and as Mike Sears said the 6 year wait for varsity assignments. Continuity and ability to work different positions seems to be compromised. Say you get 5 "real umpires" to work a game, your ok in the middle, but what about the wings? My crew, for instance, we got the chief, same size as me(5'9", 190) works R and U for sub V. I work U and R for frosh and U for JV, usually LJ and U for varsity(if our real U can't make it) he's 6'4" and about 260. My HL for V is another speedster and our BJ is a former NAVY db. BUT, we all know each other and work our mechanics together, seems kinda tough working with unfamiliar folks , so , how goes it when working outside of familiar partners???
