Just out of curiousity, what was it about the home plate umpire that sucked so bad that you were going to chew his a$$ after the game?

I would really like to know so that I may avoid such things in the future.

Yesterday, I did a 16 year old Babe Ruth tournament with a three man crew. The plate umpire sucked. Between innings, I talked to the other base umpire about what I was going to say to the plate umpire after the game.

"Fortunately" for the plate umpire, he suffered from heat exhaustion and had to be carted away in an ambulance. He did not get to hear my critique which would have ruined his day more than the hospital visit. My other partner knew what I was going to say and opined that perhaps a hospital visit was better than my a$$ chewing.
