An umpire screws up a rule(maybe) and he's now an idiot and a clown? Methinks that you and Tim really do have a lot in common. What you both have in common is a complete lack of professionalism.

Whether the umpire was right or wrong isn't really a factor. What really does matter is that you've got a supposedly fellow umpire publicly back-stabbing one of his supposed brethren. We expect that from coaches and fans. We don't expect it from fellow officials.

I wouldn't like to share a field with either of you. I'd be afraid to turn my back.

Sad.......
