Wish you weren't retiring Dave. You are obviously an umpire who really cares about doing the job right ... for the right reasons.

Have you thought about moving to fast pitch to give yourself a break from the AA leagues? Not to say that there aren't plenty of problems to deal with in fast pitch, but you could work the rec leagues and still enjoy umpiring the game. If the players whine in 10U it's usually because they are hungry.

Yeah, I've thought about it, but I dunno... We'll see. My UIC has been dropping comments about getting me into FP, but... Meh.

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.

In your post the first letters don't line up. At least on my Iphone. But well done.
