I also answered this in another forum, Rog, but I'd ask:
"Wanna trade places for a while?"
Fact is that I don't believe there is a whole lot of difference between the average accomplished Minor League umpire and the average guy who makes it all the way to the "show". What separates them is likely to be opportunity, serendipity or some other factor not equated with rule knowledge, mechanics, hustle or control.
Cheers.
