I don't have a problem with that. Most of us umpire the bulk of our games in our communities, so we will be umpiring games with coaches who are friends, who are acquaintances, who we exchange email with, and who we can't stand.

If an umpire needs to isolate himself to call a game with impartiality, he shouldn't be umpiring.
