You completely missed his point.

He was not calling you out for discussing the call HERE.

He was calling you out for your own statement that you derided the umpire to your friends.

It is one thing to make your comment here on the Forum, but you admitted that you made the comment, which based upon your description, was to a group of non-umpires. If you did, in fact, make that statement to a group of non-umpires, you did throw one of your brethren under the bus.

Hmmm. The "folks" I was watching it with ARE umpires, so he shouldn't read into my statement that they were NOT. If I'm guilty of bus-throwing, then so is everyone else who says he didn't go, because they're also saying he missed the call and are telling "folks" the umpire got it wrong. I still don't think the batter offered at the pitch, and if that's throwing someone under the bus because he thought he DID offer, well...
