In a case like this, I would make sure you were gone if you made comments again. That is big time bush league.

Coming here and talking smack about him is almost as low. He is not here of course to defend himself, and tell HIS version of events. So, we have to take the word of a fellow umpire who yells crappy things to other umpires during games they do then comes on a BBS to talk more smack about them.

Sorry, I lost ANY respect for you I might have had before. You certainly deserve what you have got out of all of this.

And you lost all of OUR respect by saying you'd eject a fan for something that happened 2 years ago - however bad that thing was 2 years ago.
