No, being able to walk the talk does. Actually working the levels you list does. Being a good umpire does.

Rei is a good umpire with excellent experience and credentials. I've never heard him whine "if only....I coulda, woulda or shoulda."

He's been there, done that, still doing that.

I don't know why this offends you.

On a related note, this is why a number of good MiLB umpire don't post on boards and help us with their experience. As soon as they describe their backgrounds, some jerk accuses them of being "legends in their own mind."

I suppose you're happier with when we get new posters along the lines of Littleboyblue, LLdan and Pugsley11.
