Thumbs down In my judgment

While I agree that 7 years of travel ball or maybe 7 months gives a coach more credibility about the game than 1 year of JV, his saying it is an attempt to intimidate or insult and he better hope I'm not in a really bad mood, especially with no partner.
Of course, most of us could respond with how many years we've been umpiring travel ball plus HS, but we're not supposed to insult them either. If you really want to lay it on, point out that umpiring mechanics require us to stand near the play and not call pitches from the dugout. Anyway, as I often say, knowing the game does not mean knowing officiating the game.
