This is about the stupidest, most self-defeatist load of garbage I have ever read.

First of all, even when a umpire kicks a call, the coaches and players are still not justified in making a$$es of themselves by crying and bit&hing about it. If they get obnoxious or just will not STFU after a while, their stupidity is the "cause" of their ejection.

Secondly, what is this "probably get it wrong" BS?
Why in the hell do we buy into the assinine conceit of idiot coaches that they can see what happened in a bang-bang play better from 90 to 150 feet away than we can at 15 feet? In a game coached by a pair of rats, you will catch a ration of crap from one side or the other on every banger. Does this mean you probably got ALL of the calls wrong? Be serious!!
