Reply to "I need an umpire for Cooperstown 2009"

As you can see there are different ideas of who goes to Cooperstown. Some will say it BS and you should never go. They feel it is beneath them and they wouldn't be caught dead there volinteering for no good reason. Of course many of the same guys say that about the LLWS. There are others that say it's a great time to see good youth baseball and meet guys that stay friends for years. Some guys have been multible times just to work with their friends.
I know guys with not a lot of talent go and I know some very highly regarded umpires that have been there and spoke highly of it.
It is dorm living, hotel rooms can be had, but some of the best war story trading happens in the dorms.
I personally have never been there, but that doesn't mean I never would either.
