I don't hang my hat on the many players who made the bigs, I just state facts the way they are. Why do you continue to harangue me about every little word I say? I am getting very tired of having to defend my words to you.

And I meant (and said) nothing at all disparaging about special needs children. I never used the word retard either, where did that come from? I was just curious as to if that was the baseball league you worked in, since you seem to think there weren't many talented players playing FED baseball in your area. I find your posts to be greatly exaggerated at times. Please stop assuming you know anything about my life.

I didn't say anything that was contrary to your opinion. I gave you my opinion. You don't have to go off on a tangent.

I'm fine with FED rules.

For the record, it sounded to me like the only ball I'm qualified to work is retards. You even said it again in the post I'm quoting.

Stay classy, San Diego.

It is amazing how you do not read what is said, or take it in the spirit intended. I asked if you had been umpiring that type of league, not saying a single thing about your qualifications. I have no doubt that you are qualified to work good baseball. Please read and comprehend. It is fundamental.

I am fine working with and enforcing FED rules. Did it for over 20 years, 5 days a week during HS season. That doesn't mean I have to like them, or that I am not allowed to speak up against some of them.
