Arrogance and Being "Bigger than the Game"

[Nigel Tufnel]

My game management skills are ever improving - I work by butt of at not escalating situations myself, just answering back in the same tone of voice. This part of my umpiring needs the most improvement, but is also the part I have come farthest along with. I don't bait people to ejections, always try to talk coaches and players out of them. That being said, I'm not afraid to take care of business either.


This area IMO is probably where the critique is coming from...
Just curious, how many EJ's this year?..last year??
