I would think the coaches would have a real problem with this umpire. The worst part is his daughter is a Junior Umpire.

Its very possible to be an unbiased umpire when you know or are related to one team, but my question is this....If it bothers you so much, let him take her off the team. Problem solved. Or is it more important to you to need her skills to win?
