R2 lying on field crying, carried off, taken to hospital, etc., and is out for the rest of the season. What should the BU's mechanic have been? Should the rest of us have gone out and kicked his butt?
I know. I know.

Great timing with that post. We are playing very inexpensive friendlies this weekend while they train their umps. YIKES!
F5 is a “Tub-of-lard” and charges the infield, literally runs over R2, steps on her foot and breaks it, never looks back, never says a word.

With the “yes you should have” mentality there would be no worries, being big and bruised, she would never catch you. Snicker.
If you’re concerned about playing a very inexpensive friendlies over the weekend while the umpires are being trained, perhaps you may want to cancel. Yikes!
