It's definitely saving me some money. I've continued to do basketball over the years, but gave up baseball because I always had kids playing.

I always enjoyed officiating basketball more than baseball, but baseball is my favorite sport. So I will try to pick up a few games where I can this summer then do a full schedule next year to stay connected to the game in some way. I actually coached a freshman hs team the last two years but just don't have the time to do it anymore so I had to step down this year. It just so happened that the guy I sold the gear to is working 2nd shift now and can't umpire anymore. I'm getting a couple of shirts, ball bags, indicator, brush, huge gear bag, my old umpshins, mask and K1 chest protector for $200. I sold most all of those items to him for $300 three seasons ago. Not a bad deal. I went ahead and ordered some pants, plate shoes, hats and another shirt from Honigs today. Now I just need to pick up a few games around my kids high school schedule, which doesn't start until late May here in Iowa.
