Venting / Should I be upset?

[Hollerace]

I am not going to jump into the "LL umps are nancy boys" area. In my 29th season, I have reverted to LL post-season only, having done several levels higher.

And I still suck.

And yes, one of the PIAs we must endure are the "experts" (DAs, ADAs, other UICs, the whole sorry lot) who think it's their right to jump into the game.

Tuss, you must learn the sub rules, inside and out.

Dave Hensley's chart is, IMHO, superb.

I once snapped at a quarter-wit who tried to jump into an argument. The dope was oustide the dugout, near the stands, screaming, "I am the Italian Ice Chairman of the Rod Serling League and their official scorer."

I snarled back, "You're a fan. And you're vexing me." And moved the discussion to the center of the field.

Harummph.
