With an attitude like that, you're not going to get much help later on if you need it. This is an umpires forum and most of us (if I'm not mistaken) probably don't play much ball, we officiate the games and if it weren't for us, your games wouldn't be all that much fun. Backyard games and some lower level rec games may be OK without umpires but competitve leagues need us to keep everybody in check and playing by the rules.

I never said Umpires were not needed but with attitude like some that are on this site, YOU CAN BE REPLACED! N & S Dakota is not the only place they play competitive ball. WE PAY FOR YOU...not the other way around........

think about it.........so help me or don't I don't care, I will keep playing and you will keep watching.

GOOD TIMES

hrradigan,

Come on now, let's be ADULTS here. Yes, your local softball associations do pay us (not enough sometimes) but who brought that up? Nowhere did I say anything about the only competitve ball is played in the Dakota's. Why did you bring that up?

BTW, I don't come out to the diamonds to "watch" you play. I come out to make sure you play the game by the rules and in the process, I have to keep an eye on the game. I'm guessing, but I bet your a Rec 3/4 player? That's the league for new and not-so-good teams.

Changing the subject a little, any of y'all ever get in an argument on the field and then out of the corner of your eye catch your partner doing this: ?

Thanks hrradigan, for reminding me again why I only call fastpitch. What an attitude!

Did anyone say fastpitch? I'll play if they let me, if not I like to watch too. How many fouls do you get in fastpitch? LMFAO
