I've seen Joe West make some of the best calls I've ever seen on some real bangers. He has a keen eye and really exceptional judgment. He just doesn't put up with a bunch of crap, so to some people he appears aloof and egotistical (and since when is that a bad trait for an umpire anyway?). I'll sure take him over some of the newer guys and vacation replacements they're trotting out there lately.
