  1. Greetings from my new residence in Lincoln, Nebraska.

  2. Nobody over the age of 21 will understand what I'm talking about but I've come to the conclusion that if I ever meet Greg Gibson, I'll sound like that kid screaming "YAS OH MY GOD" in Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites. Wub wub.

      Purely for the record, in my comment I never said I didn't hate that no-talent assclown Skrillex... In fact, my school once had an "Electronic Music Festival" instead of a winter dance. I went, because my friends went, but I hated it so much I left at like 9.

      Ha, I thought for sure I wouldn't understand with that preface. I'm proud of my 19 year old self now.

  9. Umpired in Comerica Park

  10. Anyone watching the ESPN broadcast of the Tigers/Rays game? Announcers are ripping into the umpires and it's pissing me off!! They're doing a great job!! Not that I should be surprised...

      It was Friday's broadcast, not yesterday's... When the umpires smartly issued warnings, the absolutely ripped into the "rookie" umpire saying that he only did it because he was a rookie, the crew chief probably told him to do it, blah blah blah... They were ripping Darling too for ejecting Madden, when you could SEE Darling say: "Enough! That's enough! Stop! Don't come out here!"

  12. To add to my resume: Official Scorekeeper for LL District tournament game. Time to read the nonexistent rule #10!!

      Of course in the one game I score keep, they bat out of order.-_-

      No one noticed though!! :D

      I got a 10u Minors game if you want it.... $35... Not sure the travel would be worth it though...

  14. So the volunteer UIC is morally obligated to pay the bill of his money-making junior umps when we meet for lunch?? Hmmm... Not sure how I feel about this gig anymore ;)

  15. Scheduling for my first week as UIC... Should first time umpires (never worked a game in their life) have their first game on the plate or in the field? Thoughts?

      Why do you say that? There are differing opinions here. Am I supposed to know from day one exactly how everything is supposed to be done?

      I know that there is one guy who I will be on the bases for as he does his first on the plate... I really want to use him a lot this season, so getting him started right on the plate will help a lot... The ones I can't decide are the ones where I'm going to be jumping evaluating field to field, where the base guy and plate guy are both going to be very new. One guy just newer. lol

      And I've got my eye on you, Matt. ;D

      That's what I'm leaning towards right now... Going back and forth though, cuz I can see it both ways. lol

      I thought Running Lane Interference could only occur on the first play to first (i.e. the catcher's original throw)... Or is this not RLI, but just INT?

  19. I will be going to Cooperstown All Star Village. Has anybody gone there? If so, Can you give me some info. Thanks!

  20. Apparently I devote too much time to the Little League... I was given a new title of "Communications Director"... Probably won't be a good thing come Spring.

  21. I was hit so many times in my 10u game tonight, a coach offered to buy me a six pack of beer on behalf of his catcher. LOL

      LOL… I actually thought about telling the coach "Mike… After this game, a six pack isn't going to cut it."
