gordon,

Please follow along...you are not that clever.
My name has been posted several times on this Board.
It appears multiple times on the UMPS website.

Do your homework or stop begging, it's very unbecoming.

Hey I'm just trying to help you out. I do basketball and baseball. If I have a question I want to go to the source. I might want to you use as a source. Maybe there's other guys out there that might want to use you as a source but you got to be a credible source.

[WindyCityBlue]

I think its safe to say that I have been used as a source - for training, interpreting rules and planning clinics. Those in my organizations know who I am and take advantage of it with regularity. It's surprising how many friends you have when you can get tickets to games.

Hey Look at Papa C I got to believe he's making a few bucks selling his books etc. You should consider going national and give him some competition. It's good for the economy. You'd be a patriot creating jobs etc. Can't do that unless the word gets out though.

I think I will start a business teaching basic grammar.
You could be my first student and can sit up front. Rut and Jurassic will still have to sit in the back, though. My olfactory sense is accute.

Gee, when you're teaching basic grammar, maybe you can also find somebody that'll teach YOU the grammatical meaning of "acute". Maybe they'll teach you how to spell it too. LOL!

It's been re-vamped because it had too.

I don't work the sport, but noticed that the NFL replay system doesn't function as well.

Boy is this ever the pot calling the kettle black.

correct many bad calls. Maybe the other sports will follow the lead.

These must be the games where you're working solo.

[WindyCityBlue]

Witty...illogical, but witty.

I've yet to see something get revamped because it DIDN'T NEED TO BE. Kind of like the NFL instant replay system???
It still doesn't work perfectly or quickly, but I embrace it as a step in the right direction.

I'm not sure what the pot/kettle reference means. It seems a little out of place in this context.

Finally, I would gladly work any game solo that with a partner that forgets why he is there. Could that be why we've never worked? My back would get pretty sore carrying you all day.


BTW: Yes, I intended to spell "acute" with one c. But, I just did a internet dictionary search and ...ahem...an alt. spelling is "accute". Sometimes, it's good to be lucky and smart!

Windy, got a web site for us? I did a Google search and didn't come up with one.

Windy?

CAN YOU READ? I WROTE THAT I INTENDED TO SPELL IT CORRECTLY, BUT MESSED UP. SINCE I DON'T HAVE A SPELL CHECK ON THIS DEVICE, I GOOGLED THE WORD AND FOUND IT ON A THESORAUS SITE. IT PROVIDED THE ALT. SPELLING. I THEN SAID THAT SOMETIMES IT'S NICE TO BE LUCKY.

OFFICIATING INVOLVES READING AND UNDERSATNDING THE RULES. IF YOU WERE CHALLENGED BY THOSE THREE SENTENCES, I FEEL SORRY FOR THE PARTNERS, COACHES AND ATHLETES YOU JOB.

Who cares?

Jurassic, I'd say that you're acting childish on this matter, but that would be an insult to children.

Please drop it.
