An ethics problem?

[GarthB]

"The State Board several years ago, while I was a member, adopted a rule that no umpire could be accepted for playoffs without attending a three- and four-man clinic. (The schools in my area always use four.) A local chapter could suspend the rule, if it chose."

There's the crux. A local chapter could suspend the rule, and it appears that is what yours did for Hector. They were within their rights, whether you or I consider it right.

Your resignation, in my opinion, was an over reaction to a board vote. It resembles an "I get what I want or I'm going home" attitude.

If you feel that strongly, you should work to get rid of the loop hole.
