Complete and utter nonsense, but I guess if his "game" is going to include that he has to have some mechanism for awarding points.

Yes, it is a game. Yes, there are many participants, in fact it's a "fantasy" umpire league. And yes, there has to be some arbitrary way of determining correct and incorrect calls for the purpose of points. It is also a fun way of getting recaps of umpire ejections, and getting the backstories, inside information and stats that you won't find anywhere else.
But complete and utter nonsense, or junk? Hardly. The vast majority of the information is factual.
