No doubt about it
I'm a long-time coach, and if one of my kids did either of those things and didn't get tossed, the PU wouldn't be backing up what I try to teach, which is show up, shut up, and play. If there's any...

Evaluations
I'm a longtime coach, but do not feel qualified to evaluate any umpire on his knowledge of mechanics. But as to knowledge and interpretation of the rules and also game management, I think many...

A coach's viewpoint
As a coach with whom several of you often disagree, here's my take. One of my kids asked me in jest this year, "Coach, what would you do if we brawl?" My answer was clear and not in jest: "I'd pull...

Mind-reader
Wow, Welpe, you must have ESPN!! I just posted to that effect on another thread, so I am impressed. Nobody cares who the umpires are, as long as they get it right.

Emperor...
