What The F*ck Ump?

[MarionTiger]

Some of you have mentioned that you will shake if offered and that you leave with deliberance but not in a hurry. I can understand that if you think there may be some confrontation, and especially with adults or older kids. I see your point. It would seem that would certainly take some of the fun out of it. I guess it often depends on the situation as well.

A lot of you would laugh at our relationship. I often talk to the officials of my age group as well as others between games. It's usually about rules or situations. I think it's just because we enjoy the game and discussing it. It sounds like I'm more of the exception than I thought.

I officiated for a handful of years because I liked the money and enjoyed being part of the game. Maybe I can relate better because I have "been there". I don't know how/why some of you do it, but I'm glad you do.
