I just reviewed your previous posts. I see a whole bunch of crap about equipment, what to get, how do you like this or that.....no posts about rules or actually working a game. I found one that said you did 85 games last year and that you were just starting out. Then I found a post where you said you work pitching machine games. Further research shows that your longest game was 1:45 (a lot of us around here have had INNINGS longer than that). I think you should work on getting some dust on your plate shoes, not selling them. |

I think I will say whatever the HELL I want mrm.
I work any game that I can. And some times those include machine pitch games. I have said in recent posts, I am there for the money. $30-$45 for youth leagues is pretty damn good, so you can tell me how I am not a 'real' umpire, but when you say that I will just be counting the 6 or 7 thousand dollars I make in a summer. How can I get dirt on shoes that I can't even walk in? You can look at my previous posts all you want, I think you have no life and way to much time on your hands. |

Please show me where exactly I said that you were not a real umpire. I was merely trying to send a message about the pecking order. I certainly commend you for trying to make money, and maybe you will have enough saved after this summer to finally buy that moped.

What is machine Pitch?
They play this at a batting cage, or what?
Is it little kids' ball? After some of the HS ptiching I've seen in the last couple of years, is FED thinking about allowing a team to put a Jugs machine on the mound for some games? |

At least he's honest about his avarice, its almost preferable to some of the 'its for the kidz' treacle we see so often. |

Been reading this and had to chime in - I can't believe no one else picked up on this.

You'd have to work about 155 games in the summer at $45 per game (and some you say pays $30) in order to make $7,000. According to someone else's research you said you only worked 85 games in the summer. If you got paid $45 for each of those games that would be less than $4,000. Of course I don't think you work 85 games in a summer since there's only about 100 days (give or take) in the summer months. I cannot believe you work almost every single night - but maybe. I do NOT believe you make $6-7,000 umpiring either. I work two sports, basketball and softball, and I don't make that much in a year working those two sports and I work more than I want to . . .
