I really don't think it's "enough said." You make it sound as though because he's there, his way is the right way or the only way. Notice I've never once put down the umpire -- I know his resume. As I've said, I couldn't hold his jock (nor would I really want to - figuratively or literally).

Given the emphasis on sportsmanship at the regional meetings, I would really like to know why *this game* with all the media attention, shouldn't be treated the same way in this regard as a conference game in April. Because of the exposure, shouldn't this be held up as an example of what the NCAA wants?

Matter of fact, I'd like to know how any college umpire could possibly eject a pitcher and a catcher in a D1 game next season if this same thing happened with this video being so readily available and held up as an example.
