I would have reacted the same way to that umpire, whatever the players think of him. You have to have the proper uniform, you can't be spitting seeds, the flippant commentary is quite unprofessional, and the lack of clear signals that everyone can see is a major flaw. I'm in total agreement there.
The question, to me, is whether giving brief labels to pitches and using hand signals for "flat," "high," "plate," and "deep" are still professional. I think they are.
