What me? I'm a rookie Umpire in the Northern California Umpires Association. We work San Francisco and the Penisula.

All the more reason to stay in there. The teams deserve competent umpires; in many cases, their attitude and reactions are a result of the caliber of umpiring they see. You can help bring the overall level up.

Yea, that was part of what made me quinge and come post here. Heard some players, after the game, moanin' about how bad alot of the umpires are. Fortunately I heard them saying I was one of the best they had had (this from the losing team too). That's kinda scarey considering I've been doing this for 2 whole months now lol *rolleyes*

I am, like I said, just shruggin' it off and will stick to my guns and do things the right way.
