When my older dd played basketball there was a family that showed up to the games and would yell at players that they weren’t related to. It was awful. For some reason it really sets me off when people yell at other people’s kids.You say this like you are surprised...Parents are by far the worse thing about youth sports in 2021. Heck my DW told me a Dad on Marcela's bball team was getting on her about a bad pass she made when his kid can barely catch a pass. Luckily I don't go to the games..
Yeah..like I said, I am glad I wasn’t there and the other guy is even luckier that Grandpa (my Dad) wasn’t thereWhen my older dd played basketball there was a family that showed up to the games and would yell at players that they weren’t related to.

Love it. I pray that we get an umpire like you one day that knows wth they are doing. 10 years and still waiting..............I will -- and have -- done this. If the ground crew can't get it right, don't bother because you are messing up my game. I have chased ground crews off my field because they couldn't get it right. I'd rather have no lines than wrong lines.
Typically, if this is necessary, I will bring it up at the plate meeting so the coaches are aware. When the first batter comes up I will usually tell her/him: "Did you know that if you erase one of my lines, it's a strike? But I can do it ... and these are wrong."
