There can come a time in any relationship where a divorce can become necessary.

While I am certainly not high enough in my local group to impact this issue I can speak as an experienced umpire.

Garth, there are people who just can't get along . . . we have a customer (oh, I know that rings of Peter) and if a system is in place you cannot evaluate that sytem from the outside.

You have every right to feel as you do . . . make all the value judgements you want . . . but there are people that feel different from you and they are the AD's, administrators, and even State Representatives of leagues.

I will pass into the sunset on this issue simply agreeing to disagree.

Thanks for the discussion Garth!
