That has been my point a few times, and I can't help but think that some of these--I love that term for them--"flamers" actually are that arrogant and rude when they umpire. And we all know what a wonderful game it can be when an umpire runs it in that fashion.
Hall of Famer George Anderson: "The best umpires in the game are the ones who can get through nine innings without being noticed."
