I have found that "umpires" that dress like this also hasn't washed their ball bag in six months and usually wears their hat backwards under the mask or is wearing a watch cap. Either way, they always have the hood up and hands in their pocket and the mask never comes off.

Not that I need to spend more money on umpire shirts, but it would be kind of nice to have a long sleeved shirt option.

There is a power blue long sleeve shirt, however, in Texas it is not authorized
for ASA or NFHS. That is according to W. Sparks. However, if you should wear
it under you jacket, as well as a long sleeve T who would know.

Glen,
If I'm wearing a jacket onto the field, I do not have a regular uniform shirt on underneath it. I may even have a sweatshirt, with lots of layers - or just a ong sleeved t-shirt/turtleneck.
I had a couple of dates this year where I had 7 & 8 layers on, with 2 pairs of gloves - and still froze.

I always hated those kind of dates. Sometimes it is just best to break the relationship off and call the next girl on the list. If they start cold it is very difficult to warm them up and in my experience even ong sleeved tee shirts just don't work to impress the ladies anymore.

Man, I could have used some global warming in a few of those games this year. At least, maybe some local warming...............

Oh boy. I know some of those folks. I cringe whenever I see they are working a game somewhere. Once upon a time, they read the part of rule 10 that essentially sez "I get to make stuff up." - and they take this to heart.

Do you really think that they read it, or were just told about it from their "mentor?"

Well, now, in all fairness - these clowns may have thought about reading part of the book - once or twice.
