If that is you're basis for judging yourself, have at it. My own standards have always far exceeded those.

What a bitter man.... miss out on that exclusive 9-10 year old championship game this year?

Bitter, not at all. I'm just repulsed by umpires who put their pride in advance of the game. Then howl about how IR "threatens their integrity", that's oxymoronic, they have none.
