For me, and others, as umpires, I hate it when another umpire will say---"Man, this game is moving right along....."
Uggggh.................
First 6 innings take an hour and half----Next three take 2 months.
Fukin idiot. NEVER say how smooth a game is going. NEVER.
Basketball---Same thing.
Game day for me: Always pack travel bag:
1. Pants, shirts, Jacket. On left side---both pairs of shoes, shirt stirrup, whistles, furniture polish(shoes) , compression pants/shorts and two pairs of socks.
2. 15minutes before we go on the floor, I listen to "Stayin Alive(Bee Gee's).
3. ALways a prayer.
4. Never step on lines.
Baseball:
1. Pants, shirts/pullovers....Left side: Undershirts, ball bags, compression gear, gloves(if needed)..Hats
2. Undercarriage: Plate equipment. Left side of bag: turf shoes.....Right side: Non-turf.
3. Misc: always have red and blue pen.
4. 15 minutes before going on field----"Put me in Coach......"----Hell yeah.
NEVER STEP ON THE FUKIN FOUL/FAIR LINES. EVER.
