Matt,
1. It's clear you have no idea of my resume or experience. Your need to 'brag' tells me all I need to know. Sad.
2. You wrote that umpires calls don't cost teams games. I provided an example where it did. Further, I remind you that our blown calls have consequences too.
3. Yes, it did. Do you even know which game I am discussing? Plenty of comments were made about how he should never have made that call. And no, I wasn't one of them.
To get you back on topic, some coaches deserve to be ejected. They break rules and act poorly. I addressed a blanket statement regarding the need to eject coaches who behave badly. I cited the NFHS rule for handling problem coaches. Handle them as you see fit. I haven't had the need to discipline one in a long time. Maybe that is my umpiring, maybe it is luck. I take no glee in dumping a coach or player. It's just part of the job and thankfully I don't see that many problems on the field. I wish you well.
