Cheers to Mr. Konyar for taking the high road and being gracious.
Yes. He has shown an excellent example to his followers. Hopefully they will learn from it.
Jeers to Mr. Childress for not taking responsibility (don't look at me...it was the writer's words, not mine). Glad he's not my UIC. (What do you want from me...he made the call
I don't recall seeing those words, but then again, I only read the article twice. And I hope all my UIC's understand that they may not overrule my calls.
Double Jeers to Mr. Campagna for ducking the issue entirely.
I didn't know he had. Was there a request made of him to do something?
Since my path as an umpire probably won't stray much past the local arena, I probably won't have to work with either of these two people. Which is good... as I would decline, given the opportunity.
That's too, bad. One should never decline an opportunity to learn. Mr. Osborne and I have had a shaky past to say the least, but I would jump at the chance to work a game with him. I personally agree with Mr. Konyars asserting that some of last year's LLWS umps performed sub-par, but I would welcome the opportunity to work with them and learn anything they had to offer.
It's called integrity. Mr. Konyar has loads of it, and I look forward to working with him one day and am very proud to be a participant of his organization.
Despite your impression, Mr. Konyar does not have an exclusive on integrity. But I'm glad to see you have the ambition to improve and move up. Good luck.
