  1. I wish he could have made the trip to San Diego. Would have been nice to meet him personally and buy my mask directly from him.
  2. and it only took you the first play. Nice!
  3. This is why I stopped using the "one more word" command. Cause what should have happen is the minute "Can you..." came out of your mouth I would have be REQUIRED to eject. I hate to be cornered and thats exactly what I would have done if I threatened with the "one more word" command.
  4. What do you do with guys that are like myself who usually work two man but want to learn three man as well in order to move up?
  5. If there is one thing I am good at its patience. I know a cross country trip wont happen any time soon but something down my way some where in southern CA is a definite possibility.
  6. Yeh, this is the one and only EJ that I wish I had gotten and didnt. Its actually my fault for not trying to kill the ball when it happened. It was all my fault. I wasnt used to arguing balls and strikes without my mask on and since I was up the 1b line I obviously didnt. I actually ended up taking off both my hat and my sunglasses so I think i didnt continue with the EJ mostly cause I was redfaced because of me more or less undressing myself. I promise I wont make the same mistake again.
  7. I saw Oceanside and was like HECK YEH! A school close to me. Then I saw they abbrivation FL and got really sad:hopmad: Oh well. This is california. Something has to come this way at some point. Right?:shrug:
  8. god I hope I get it here. I hate looking at the NBA channel at work. What a waste of space. The NFL network at least is informative but the NBA one is useless. MLB, please save us! By the way, does it look like its going to be on DISH?
  9. The problem I have seen is that people just dont want to deal with the problems of an EJ. Whether it is they dont want the responsibility of the EJ. Or having to write the report. Some people just dont do it. Ive had at least one EJ every year for the last 14 years (except last year due to my schedule being drastically cut due to my work schedule). The only EJs that bug me are the ones that I didnt do. What are your guys thoughts on missing the ejection when you are supposed to do it. Then a play happens. Can do EJ after the play? I was on the bases and the OAC started complaining about a check swing strike I called. I told him to knock it off (he responded "no") and my partner didnt notice that I was having words with the dugout allowed the next pitch to happen. the BR grounded out to F4. Could I then come back and inform the HC that his assistant needed to hit the showers or have I missed the chance. After the he said "no" and the pitcher made the pitch I didnt hear anything else from the coach so I didnt get a second chance.
  10. Ordered my Diamond Silver Mask from Jim and got it three days easy. Cant wait to give it the first try on January 17th. *** So I just posted a complaint about my situation with my order from Honigs on the review page for them on this site. Now as much of a problem as I have with Honigs I have the complete opposite with Jim and Ump-Attire.com! Jim has been nothing but helpful with all my questions and inquiries. I placed an order over the phone with him today (had the pleasure of talking directly to the famed Mr. Kirk). He was nothing if not one of the nicest guys I have ever spoken to on the phone. Very professional and gracious that I was placing an order with him over any of the other companies. Made me feel that my business and my money was going to a company that appreciated me. I ordered the black ultimate shirt, a navy ultimate ball bag and a pair of the Reebok Quag II referee shoes (since Reebok does not make the Field Magistrate shoe in a mid-top). He expressed his worry about me ordering them Reeboks, as I have not worn that company's shoes in quite a few years and that I wear a wide width show. He wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing. He also reminded me that if they were not the right fit that he would be more than willing to take them back and I could get the New Balance 995s. I also ordered the Polo Blue ultimate shirt which will be shipped when ever he gets it. Which is fine by me, because I know it will be the right size and the right shirt (unlike other companies). Now with my problem with my Honigs order, I can see another phone call to Jim to add on two Smitty long sleeve shirts to my order. There is such a thing as caring enough for the customer and making sure everything is right. Jim does that. Thank you
  11. I think its interesting to see how many people I know from other sites. Makes things fun and a little easier.:GL:
