You're just as complicit as they are in this by posting a link to their "Hall of Shame" list here.

Class of 2007
 
Whoa, that list was longer than I thought it would be. Now that some of those guys who never went to school got a free shot at the big leagues, Jim and Harry should have no trouble finding candidates for the class of 2007. Enrollment should SOAR.

Since there was no central point in MiLB that gathered names, this was obviously put together from input by individual AMLU members. I know of several names that are missing.

It's too bad their disregard for accuracy has effected you. You very well may not be the only one.

This page is part of Eastern New York's Babe Ruth Site, Jerry Francis, commissioner http://www.enybaberuth.org/.

What would you think of an NFL official, who also worked NCAA Baseball (had CWS assignments), filling in when MLB umps struck in the late 70s, or early 80s? He earned enough money to pay cash for a new car.

Thanks Again For The Recognition!!!!! I'm Honored That You Would

Take The Time To Comprise Such A Nice List.

They shamed their families! Give me a break. LMAO. Get over it and put that $30 to good use.

I can think of a couple of guys I worked with that are not on that list. Also, they mispelled a couple of names! They got mine right though! :D

All,

I would like to correct one of the entrys. I was assigned games under the umbrella of Nick Zibelli. After his name on the list is written "...lied to his umpires to get them to work."

That statement is itself a lie. Nick Zibelli wrote each of us a long email outlining the possibilities of working Minor League Baseball. He theorized on where this might be headed. It was clearly an opinion and in no way can be construed as a lie.

I liken it to an economist who forecasts 3% inflation for next year. When inflation comes in at 4.2%, we do not say that he lied. Only an idiot would claim that the economist lied. Nick's statements were clearly labeled as opinions about possible future outcomes. Each of the readers with IQ's above 80 understood that Nick was outlining his opinion of what might happen in the future. Reasonable men of average intelligence understood that Nick has little control over the future just has economists have little control over inflation. Only if the econonmist happens to be the Chairman of the Federal Reserve does he have control of inflation and even that is tenuous. Only if a man is Commissioner of Major League Baseball does he have control of baseball labor relations and even that is tenuous.

I guess the email they've received worked. The page is gone.

Or, perhaps the number of complaints that Steven Tellefsen, CEO of Babe Ruth, received may have played a role.

It's amazing that a Babe Ruth League would allow their site to used in such a way.
