Sorry, Steve. I don't find, in the context of a heated exchange on the field, POS to be a dirty digusting name.
Umpires, managers and players have referred to one another by that name for years. Usually, however, umpires didn't initiate it, they repeated it in their replies.
I am not blaming Bradley for what Winter's did, but I agee that had Bradley not charged Winters and had the first base coach not lied, this would not have risen to the level it has.
But the fact is, it has risen to higher level and Winters must pay the consequences of his action.
