"We already know umpires are human. If umps apologize too frequently, we'll begin to think they're extremely flawed humans who need to be replaced with Extreme Robot Umpire Overlords who are fitted the latest QuesTec software.
So, just get the calls right in the first place — that way you have no need to say you're sorry.
Or fix the call if you make a mistake and then apologize for messing up. That would be an apology with some value.
Or just make the call and live with it. Keep your mea culpas to yourselves, please.
No more Mr. Sorry Guy."
I couldn't agree more.
