I guess that maybe it that i have had bad experience with umpires. Most of who arent approachable, want to be seen, and miss simple calls.

G30, given your opinion of umpires in general, I would suggest that you try it and see how "easy" it actually is... Over the years, I have suggested this to several umpire critics and a few have taken me up on it. ALL of them have a revelation that it's not as "easy" as it looks. It takes years of training and experience to become a competent umpire. Sure we have our rookies and brothers who should have chosen another profession, but on the whole, we know what we're doing and how to deal with coaches and players. There are exceptions to every rule but your post shows your inexperience in evaluating umpires or you would have never made such a statement.
