We're trying to help the guy out. It's my impression that he's somehow directly involved in this league, and we will gladly answer his question. However, there are times when A) we need to clarify some points with him beforehand and B) we need to get all the facts straight. So what if it's slow pitch? It's still a sport with rules. Rules that everyone agrees to follow when they take up the sport. You're right, the rulebook is a complex, wordy document that, sadly, some umpires either never read or get halfway through it before giving up. However, I've read it. Dozens and dozens of times. That's why I do what I do, and I do it well. That's why I'm here every day, happily answering (almost) everyone's questions. Officiating any sport is a noble profession, and slow pitch is no exception. This gentleman (I'm assuming he's male, and I apologize if I'm mistaken) came to us with a rule question. We will happily work with this individual, who quite clearly has a desire to see the sport "done right," even if it's for inmates. You, sir, appear to be quite content in belittling the sport, and all those who strive to better it. If that's your station in life, fine, but don't expect it to be mine.

Dave I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views! Screw green, it ain't easy being blue! I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again. |
