...or "White ball!"

The ball is not white.

The ball belongs to white.

Just say, "White!"

White's ball?

Personally, I like to hop up and down on one foot, while pointing over my shoulder and screaming " WHITE, WHITE, WHITE, WHITE, WHITE....."

Hmmmm....so what do you do if it's red's ball?

Then it might be an even more relaxed atmosphere. Of course you will not have the instruction, but you will not have evaluators at every dead ball telling you what to do. Just stay focused. Call the game the best way you know how and most of all have fun.

Peace

Remember Leslie Neilsen in the Naked Gun? The scene where he played the baseball umpire, when Reggie was trying to shoot the Queen?

To answer your question, if I could, I'd do the splits just like Lt. Drebbin, get back up, and then moonwalk while I was hollering "R-E-E-E-ED!" How cool would that be?

Lt. Frank Drebbin- "I like my sex the way I play my basketball- one on one, and with as little dribbling as possible".

BTW, I see you've been bothering the umpires again?

Keeping Mick busy.

[/B][/QUOTE]Yeah, I'm 5 for 5 now. Four threads locked and the last one completely deleted. Still no answers either. Must be Rut's fault. That's the only thing I can think of.

As for mick, hey, he's a Little League umpire. He's used to the abuse.

If he aint careful he's gonna blow out a knee back-tracking like that.

You know, Jeff, it might be funny if it wasn't so damn sad. I told HHH that if it would make him feel better, he could just head on over to McGriffs and call you some names there. I take a look at McGriffs later- and bedamned if he didn't go ahead and do exactly that. Couldn't bother responding to my concerns here, but he had plenty of time to go over there and crap on you again. And then someone here wants to sell me a subscription to read his sameold/sameold hatred and bile? Nah, don't think so.

The sad thing is I have no idea why he would even dislike me with such venom. I have never done anything to the man. I guess some people just like to rip people and not back up their claims.

Sad indeed

The same thing that happens to the points of lots of threads. It's been discuss-i-fied.

Jeez, I've been doing this for 12 years. I wish there was only one thing left for me to work on!

Dan, you want to give Brandon the full list?

Seriously, Brandon, glad it went well. Good luck in the future.
