Is that enough to warrant a police report?

I doubt it since there was no threat.

In NC, the "flaking corksoaker" is still considered "simple assault." Probably in most other states, too.

If you call the cops, it is your last night working. The word will spread among the beer league guys and you are done pretty much IMO.

Beer league guys dont like cops being called.

So call them if you have too, but thats it. Thats your resignation.

Or watch your back BIG TIME.

What if the player is a cop for the town in which he's playing?

I agree. Stupid laws, but hey, I didn't write 'em. I just live here.

Here's one from DE:

It is illegal to fly over any body of water, unless one is carrying sufficient supplies of food and drink.

Hey wait, isn't that another thread?

Not unless you're flying the Gossamer Albatross.

Some local DE ordinances that may directly affect umpires...

It is illegal to wear pants that are "firm fitting" around the waist. (Lewes)
No person shall change clothes in his or her vehicle. (Rehoboth Beach)


Just thought you Delaware guys should be informed!
