They frequent this forum too much?
Just kidding. One that immediately comes to mind is when an umpire does not recognize the third team on the field: the officiating crew. They throw their partner under the bus, show up their partners on the field and don't show any support of their partner whatsoever. I've had a partner who was exactly like that: extremely knowledgeable, hustled well and had great mechanics, but didn't work well with partners. I don't recall him ever getting a big game.
