Good morning Umpire-Empire - We were slammed with questions about the New Balance V3 MLB Umpire Plate shoe for the last week or so. @JimKirk & I worked extensively to provide detailed information on our website & Im attaching the link here from Google: https://goo.gl/fR0swC We're not taking Pre-Orders & we're not charging extra for Special Orders b/c you need a 2E or 4E width. We are following the New Balance MAP pricing guidelines of $140 for low & $150 for mid-cuts; no matter the size or the width! What we ARE doing, is offering FREE SHIPPING & FREE RETURNS. Go to the link above & find out more details. We will have EVERY option available in this plate umpire shoe IN-STOCK & they're arriving soon!!!

has anyone heard if they're making "The Third Team" for the 2016 World Series?

Some people think that the umpires who work the LLWS and are donating their time in doing so by not getting paid are doing a disservice to the rest of us. Their reasoning is that the LLWS makes a lot of money with their tv contract, they can easily afford to pay umpires. Comments?

Funny story from my flight home last week that I forgot to share with everyone, and I think you'll like it. Coming home from Vegas last week (business) ... I'm on the aisle, and a couple is next to me. I take out my NFHS rule books, illustrated, by topic and 2 books I picked up from the SEMUC camp. When I place them in my magazine pocket in front of me, the NFHS rules by topic is showing outward, ...I think nothing of it and check my phone for messages, and to turn to "airplane mode". Then, ... from the man (against the window) I hear ..... "oh ...baseball rule book, ...are you a coach?" I said: "no, I'm an umpire" He said, "Oh, great, (then started asking me what age-groups I do, etc, etc ... ) He then finishes, ...."I thought of "coach" when I saw the rule book" I said: "The rule book should have been your first hint that I wasn't a coach, because they CERTAINLY don't read it, or know it" He cracked up as his son plays competitive travel ball (11u), .........he obviously got my humor!

If Umpire-Empire was an actual Umpires Association would we be the best? Many of us on here spend a lot of time here asking and answering questions. I would tend to think that most of us are probably the better Umpires in our perspective associations. What's your opinion?
