Keep buying shirts, Glen; they haven't run out of letters yet.

I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying necessarily. I would though like to know what Mr. Voss's side of the argument is.
A few comments about some of the other posts in this thread:
I worked the Sulphur National tournament this year and thought the fees were more than adequate. I would prefer the status quo in my neck of the woods. (SE Houston). Things are just fine pay wise and we sure as heck don't need an "organization" or a "system" to fix things. If it isn't broke, why does someone feel a need to fix it?
My main beef is with TASO (TX high school ball) where it takes forever to get a check. They get away with it because they are an "organized" "system" that could give a rip about how much softball umpire fees are and has been at the same rate structure for a long time.
