First, English must not be your first language . . . at least the written version.

Second, if you get so emotional about things I've written to you you must be quite the umpire.

Nickolaus continued in another post:

"My "dangler" has saves my life, several times each season."

". . . several times each season . . . "

Nick, if this statement is even close to true you're doing something wrong.

SDS and I had a very nice off line discussion about people who make this silly claim . . . while I do believe umpires get hit in the throat area, while I believe that many have balls hit danglers, while I believe the dangler has most likely has stopped an injury now and then I really can't remember EVER getting hit in the throat.

Nick, in my book you're down right silly when it comes to defending your need to wear armour.
