Got some red Nike pads for sell. From former catcher who I bought a Nike from. Shoot me an offer or I would be more than willing to trade.

Suggestion #3 is ridiculous. Umpiring a 9 inning game 2/3 times in 7 days is a ridiculous ask, I know MILB guys have to do it. I could not disagree more, hitters have to get a hit 30% of the time to be in the HOF and umpires miss one pitch and everyone rips them for it. Harper needs to worry about being a player and let the umpires umpire that game.

Skull cappers...report in with your findings, please...
The Ripper replied to SeeingEyeDog's topic in Umpire Equipment
I just got this Rawlings Coolflo Plate helmet in... and love it. In my opinion, it looks the best of the other plate helmets. I saw MLB umpires wear it, but there are none wearing the skully. The bill of the helmet is short enough, were I have no problem in removing the mask. I would highly recommend this one. -
Hi everyone. I want to buy a Nike made before 2016 with the extended bars. After reading MadMax's post on the differences between Nikes made before and after 2016, I became very interested in getting one before 2016. I have posted some photos below of the Nike I want vs the others. Thanks! Nike I want ( before 2016): Other Nike (after 2016):

Hi everyone. Quick post but wanted to ask if this was a real and good site? I have just never heard of it. It looks pretty good to me but wanted confirmation. Thanks! https://umpjunksa.com

Nike “Icon” Ti Measurements, Pre-2019 Batches
The Ripper replied to MadMax's topic in Umpire Equipment
Wow, very fascinating!!! Wish I had it, so I could send you those measurements. Real cool stuff, I have a Nike, I guess, from the 2016 to 2019 timeframe. I definitely saw a difference in my Nike and others. I wrote this topic on a similar topic: (Definitely less detailed) Also if anyone has a “Pre 2016” Nike, that they want to sell, I “may” pay a pretty penny for it. Thanks. -
Get out of here

Hi, yes Michael or Umpirerock74 is the man to go. Michael is unfortunately away and will not be available. I am running Umpguard till he comes back, please send me a text at 334 750 5205, and we will be more than happy to help you retrofit your CP. What we do is we retrofit your CP just like Team Wendy use to do. It is very protective and professional. Text me and we can talk about everything. Thanks William.

Hello gentlemen, Michael is out of town and will not be available. I have taken over customer service and operations for Umpguard until Michael gets back. Chest Protecters will not be shipped out until Saturday (you have already given them to Michael). If you want to send in your CP to Umpguard or “ Team Wendy 2” retrofit, contact me at 334-750-5250. If you want photos of the retrofit, Michael has posted a lot of this site or I can send a photo on mine. Gentlemen, Michael has also started retrofitting shin guards as well. These shinguards are going to be retrofitted the exact same way as the chest protector. So, start thinking if you want your CP or your shinguards retrofitted by Michael. Again Ump guard is made with the top-of-the-line materials and care. I will remind you again, that Micheal will not be available to answer any calls or text this week so please text me at my number above. Don’t hesitate to text me at anytime. ~William

Absolutely, No Problem!

I am planning on using the large for shirts/jackets, the medium for more shirts or pants, and maybe the slims for accessories… pens, Lineup Cards, or brush. Know a lot of people who have them and they say the cubes are a must.
