bad name
This is the kind of thing that gives all umpires a bad name. You guys talking about fat, lazy umps are probably the same guys who bad mouth your partner behind his back. Or on a tough play say that "it wasn't my call". This is the kind of garbage that give coaches all kinds of ammunition. One thing you need to keep in mind when you work, and I do not care what level it is or how good the teams are. The game always means something and is very important to the players and coaches involved and they are for the most part giving it their all. If you cannot do the same in return you are not in this profession for the right reasons. So before bad mouthing someone else, look in the mirror.
