I agree, and it is a sad thing to watch. This is my first year certified and in uniform. I have umpired for years on a volunteer basis. It amazes me how much some of these new "young" umpires think that they know. I'm not saying that "young" umpires can't know their stuff, I'm saying that experience is a big plus and you really only get that through time.
