I agree, this is supportive - Wade's just a bit more blunt, not abrasive.

Greg,
As a rookie ump, start keeping a journal/diary of strange stuff that happens & how you ruled, results, ... Do that with this, then look back at it in a couple of years. I suspect that your response after a couple more years of umpiring wuld be much closer to what you hear folks here saying.

Now, grow a set, report this and make sure that league & tournament & your association know you've reported it. If they choose to accept that as a resignation, F*** them. At that point, your association should let that group go without umpires.
