Must be an ex big10 ump.
Must be an ex big10 ump.
I don't think so.Wow. What a dick. Fire him ASAP.
LOL WOW. Clearly terrible calls and dude pops a gasket and goes ref authoritarian.I don't think so.
The player should have been tossed. Shut the **** up about calls, you know it won't change anything anyway.
I don't ump/ref because it sucks but if I did, before every game I would talk to the coaches and players and say this
"I promise I will not tell you what plays to call or how to play the game and you promise to not tell me how to ump/ref"
The first complain, is T or ejection...
I have coached like 3-4 different sports for over 20 years, I have never once had a ref/ump T me up, flag me, kick me out, nothing.
It isn't hard. Shut the **** up and go play.
Agreed terrible call and when a player makes an error should the ump make fun of him and show him up?LOL WOW. Clearly terrible calls and dude pops a gasket and goes ref authoritarian.
If an ump can't maintain his professionalism in the face of a player who is arguing balls and strikes, he shouldn't be an ump.Agreed terrible call and when a player makes an error should the ump make fun of him and show him up?
Yes or no?
And if a player can't act normal, he should be booted. Right?If an ump can't maintain his professionalism in the face of a player who is arguing balls and strikes, he shouldn't be an ump.
Players (kids) are chalk full of emotion/adrenalineWhy should players get to ***** but the umps can't?
Anyone?
NopePlayers (kids) are chalk full of emotion/adrenaline
Umps are paid to be the literal exact opposite
So, let me ask AGAINPlayers (kids) are chalk full of emotion/adrenaline
Umps are paid to be the literal exact opposite

Kids should be disciplined as well for acting like douches.Still the best!!!
I love when crazies think that it is okay when their 9 year old freaks out on an ump!!!
The ump wouldn't be suspended indefinitely if he wasn't expected to act professional.Nope
Ever seen a contract form for an ump? It says nothing about emotion or adrenaline.
Amen!Kids should be disciplined as well for acting like douches.
Agreed.The ump wouldn't be suspended indefinitely if he wasn't expected to act professional.
That's a dumb question and the answer is obviously no.And if a player can't act normal, he should be booted. Right?
Should an ump be allowed to make fun of a player that ****s up? Yes or no?
Right, so the stupid kid ruined it all by acting like a freaking baby.That's a dumb question and the answer is obviously no.
The ump would have been justified tossing the kid when he reacted the way he did to the previous bad strike call. When he didn't, he was obligated to be professional and call the next pitch legitimately. It was obvious he did not. He was rightly suspended.
The whole situation was handled poorly by the kid and the ump. I’ve been to about a thousand baseball games the last 10 years, have seen countless kids acting like jackasses showing up an ump. I’ve seen it handled by umps again and again. Could be a lecture, could be an ejection. I’ve never seen one go full potato and react like this dipshit did. The kid needs to be punished and probably won’t be. The worst part about what the ump did is he made it about himself instead of keeping the focus on the kid’s behavior.Right, so the stupid kid ruined it all by acting like a freaking baby.
Sucks.
The wind here is nasty this morning.They played yesterday in same temps with rain. It's sunny today.
