The only umpires I know who worry about those kinds of things are those who also work softball.
Any point to this thread other than ripping MLB umpires?

I would have posted this, including my opinion, regardless of the umpire, organization or level.
Remember when it was taught to annoy the coach by walking in small circles and make the coach chase if s/he wanted to "argue"? Or put your back to the sun to force the coach to look into it. I have never taught such things and would correct anyone who would bring them up in a clinic. IMO, an umpire who uses such childish tactics is classless.
AFA the sunglasses, I agree with Dave
