Ump29, are you addressing this to an individual or the members of this forum in general?

So....you're saying you want us to jump on you instead, huh?

I jumped all over him at first, not because he is young, but because of the way he came off at first. He is 16, and claimed to have "a lot" of experience, which is just not really possible. Since then, he and I have shared many friendly PMs, and he understands why he got dumped on now, and everything is fine. So, why do you want to keep it going, after it has all pretty much settled down?

Tee, frankly boyinblue24 is like most of us where at that age. We are all far different umpires at our ages then we were then. I know I wish I had someone like you to offer me sage advice when I was in my mid 20's and just starting out.

Another important point. Most of us who improve year after year, even in our AARP years subcribe to the theory of listen, watch, learn...before we speak.

Tim, I wasn't responding to your post, I was responding to Ump29. I know you weren't piling on. I was posting at the same time you were, and hadn't read yours yet.
