The Teaching of Umpires

[Chess Ref]

I didn't do a very good job of expressing my bottom line in my first post.

I want to talk about the posting of the answers without all the moral outrage.

I accept that some people were upset but that led me into the learning system for new officials. I will learn the all the rules and how to apply them in the proper sitch. I did pretty good in basketball-learning rules and applying them-so I assume the same will happen in softball.
I think having the references for the questions then looking them up is better then spending alot of time in the index section spinning my wheels hoping to eventually get to the right section AND then starting to learn.
