If you want to claim that C.B. Bucknor is the worst umpire in MLB, that's fine--although absurd. But, your comment was: bad umpire= C.B. Bucknor. If he's a bad umpire, what are you? The worst t-ball umpire ever? Just so you know, the Southwest Plane view camera doesn't come from a true angle and you also have no idea how good the worst professional umpire is compared to you
I don't understand the need for a personal attack here.... he did not say that he should be an MLB umpire, he just said that Bucknor is the worst umpire in the MLB. A little defensive are we for some reason?

Anyway... obviously there are a few MLB umpires that are the weakers amongst the best in the world. I would agree that CB Bucknor does enlarge the corners of the plate and that Angel Hernandez has no feel for the game.... especially on the bases.

These guys are good umpires, but don't appear to be as sharp as their colleagues... I think that is all that he was saying.
