Umpires are necessary evils. That's just the nature of the beast. For years, people have looked on umpiring as a job they could get any postman to do.
Error is part of the game. I never, ever second-guessed myself on a call and don't believe good umpires ever should.
I must admit, I was born to officiate; I was made to officiate. I miss it. I knew why I was doing it. God made me to umpire.
I went into umpiring at age 16. I got into officiating because of the fact that I could not stand the referees that worked our basketball games.

The rapid easing of monetary and fiscal policy this time around should enable the economy to return to positive growth more quickly than usual and with lower interest rates and inflation than during the 1990s expansion.
When I found the book was condemned as soon as the book was printed, or rather as soon as it was set up ready to print, I held it in plates for a year nearly, waiting to see what would come out of all this discussion.
