In a Fed game, young umpire objected to a coach telling him "You blew that call" twice, face-to-face, not across the field. Said rookie dumps coach.
I let too much of that kind of crap slide this year. 8 ejections in about 70 games, but it should have been more like 15. If someone comes up to me and tells me "you blew that call", there's a good chance I will dump him if I feel he is trying to intimidate me. If he's letting off frustration I'll probably say nothing.
As for yelling "you're killing us blue", this is something I used to not toss someone for in the past, but I am considering ejecting them in 2008.
And yes I did give this thread a 5 star rating, just as it deserves.
