A lot of the "top dogs" in association are seeing how the game is changing both in the style of play and the style of umpiring, and they do not want to change.

My old partner thought my mechanics and the style I use was not very good, and he use to call me out on it.

I just finally did what another poster said in an earlier comment, I ignored it and did what I was taught, watched and adapted into my own game, asked to do by supervisors, and it has worked for me.

Our association uses a rule toward newer officials, if we (veteran officials aka "top dogs") are not asked for advice, do not offer advice.
