Also, I don't understand your point other than attempting to clarifiy the "whys" of your decision to work. My column is VERY clear that all information about deciding to work (or not) is about my personal decision.

Last if you would read the entire column and just not the tease you might understand what the column is about and my position. You would also find that I criticize both the striking umpires and the replacement umpires: however that would take effort on your part and you rather sit back, hide behind a screen name and take shots . . . that's OK it just keeps my name and column in people's minds.

Again, I recognize that I probably work games with you in Portland . . . and that you are the source of complaint to our mutal assignor . . . for that I am sad.

They pay you? My oh my......

Tim, there is no need to twist this all around. In your "article", you state the opinion that there is only one reason to cross a picket line, and go on to state that reason. This does not come across as your reason to whether to cross a picket line or not, it comes across as anybody's reason. So, if you meant that statement as your reason, then you didn't make that very clear at all. I am fairly well used to your comments not being very clear in their meaning.

Tim, I paid the $50 and read the whole article. That is an interesting "shot" you take at me accusing me of not. Why the hostility?

So, can you clarify your comment "and that you are the source of complaint to our mutal assignor . . . for that I am sad."? I won't touch this until you do.

As to hiding behind a screen name.................you should try it some time.
