Politics, unions, and such

There is some pretty entertaining reading on the baseball board regarding the strike by the minor league umpires, the hiring of amateur umpires as fill ins, and the taking of amateur umpire assignments by out-of-work minor league professional umpires ("amateur" and "professional" refers to player status, not umpire status). Quite a bit of hostility over there.
