For around here, that 3:19 is utterly uneventful.

Haven't we seen that field before, with some rhubarb over a running lane violation?

yeah, if you click on 'the umpire strikes back' you'll see the same

Aren't you supposed to chug a beer after reaching each base in leagues like this?:p

Everyone in that video is a loser, and I feel dumber after watching it. (if that's possible).

p.s. nice umpire shorts. Jeez, someone harpoon those two goofs.

3:19? Once I saw it was adult beer softball, I closed the window. About 0:01

Even nicer plate stance...

I know that some of you baseball-only guys look down on softball, but this clip is "real" softball in the same vein that the WWF is "real" wrestling.

Properly trained softball umpires wouldn't look or act like these guys and would have some notion of the concept of "game management".

50 seconds: Umpire makes the mistake of lecturing them on proper behavior.

1 minute 25 seconds: They're either yelling at the opposing bench, or at the home plate umpire over a call.

2 minutes 22 seconds: Since when was a team entitled to 2 warnings?

2 minutes 30 seconds: Umpire pointed foul on a fair ball.

2 minutes 36 seconds: Umpire took a couple steps towards an arguing player, welcoming an argument.

2 minutes 40 seconds: Automatic ejection.

There's no point in detailing every mistake that these clowns are making. The fact that they are even on this field is a joke.

im really not even sure why you bothered to watch the whole video and critique it

I thought it would be interesting to get some opinions on how this "game" was handled by the "umpires".

So much for professionalism.

And you have the audacity to ask us not to turn a thread into a WOBW? What the fig do you call this pile of manure?
