My point was everyone knows what these umpires are, so as long as they don't arrive in shorts and a tee shirt people are not going to see it as a "flaw".
The scab umpires have a lot more problems then plate pants color. As long as they continue to call the wrong runner out when two runners are on the same base preventing a double play, continue to use a strike zone that is much large for pro baseball, use mechanics and mannerisms that work in high school a college. Those are flaws IMHO.

Let me translate what you just wrote:
Blah, blah, blah, scab. Blah, blah, scab, blah, blah.
I'm telling you, there are a lot of people out there that simply ignore the message when such inflammatory words are being thrown around.
