If I use it, I better be able to defend against it, because the other team will try it too.
Also, there are those special umpires that will call the runner out for going to second, if the ball is in the circle.

Show the other team up? I could maybe see that being an issue in a rec league, but in travel ball, I wouldn't worry about showing anyone up.
If an umpire calls the runner out, then I hope he can show me the rule that justifies the call.
