[Bassman]

I had been out of umpiring since 2008 to pursue other interests, but I have come to miss it alot. So, as of 2013, I will be back on the ball diamond. However, the biggest change will be that I will no longer be affiliated with the Western New York Umpires Association. I am scoping some of the larger house leagues with one in particular (B.O.Y.S. Baseball of Lackawanna). The reason is simple. I don't want to find myself going to East Bumf**k to work a game and then the next night, going to West Jahunga. House leagues have the advantage of one complex, so that's what appeals to me right now.
