i've gone out to the FU on a terrible call (their all terrible when they're against us). I called time out after the play, walked to the FU and politely asked if he would like some skittles. He starts laughing and so do I. I then say, I think you made the correct call from your angle, but from everyone else angle, WE think she was out. He ask the PU and they talk, reverses the call and the other coach goes Bizerk. I then offer him some skittles, and he is not a fan. oh well! But I really dislike when an Umpire will not ask for help. I know they don't have too, but if I'm polite and not nasty, don't make me nasty by not asking for help. It needs to be a rule, that when asked (maybe limit to 2 a game) that they have to meet and discuss. Most of the time they never change, but sometime a meeting is all we ask. JIC
