They are clowns masquerading as umpires, and know nothing about the game.
Please don't even try to say that you have never hollered at an umpire before, because I'm just not buying it. That goes for the rest of you sanctimonious liars out there. You've all booed the umpire before. You may not have done what Tim did, but I read here all the time about how so-and-so blew the call on the MLB game, and how they shouldn't even have a job, etc.
We criticize other umpires all the time. Tim just got caught up in the moment. He came here, the one place he can go to confess his sins, and everyone is taking pot-shots at him now. He's a big boy, and he can take the assaults, but remember that he had the courage to admit his mistake.

SDS,
Please reread my posts, comprehension is essential.
Though I'm not in agreement with what Tim said, I have not been piling on.
My posts have been aimed specifically at Tim's #1 apologist Tim C who called his outburst an act of bravery.
