Fear? I have no fear. Rather I have confidence in my partner and confidence in the system. The mechanics system put in place gives judgement calls to one and only one umpire. That umpire gets into the best position he can and makes his call the best he can. IMO, THAT is what's best for the game.
I have been officiating HS sports since I turned 18 (I'm 34). I have enough confidence and experience that I could get away with "appealing" to my partner. I have no fear of doing so; however, I don't feel it is in the best interest of the game.
Getting each call individually correct is not necessarily doing what is right for the game. Or the game.
