Bill Hohn: Worst MLB umpire or merely the most glaring?

With the microscope of television and delivery of every game that's played, we all see all the bad calls that we can stand, making it look more glaring than it is.

But it seems like Bill Hohn is on more than his share of bad call highlight clips. Is there anyone who is regarded as worse than him?

I thought it was Tim McClelland who was the worst? I guess you just watch TV and whoever appears to miss a close call is the worst to you.

From the other thread...

And from asking for the appeal with his right hand to working a knee to ringing the guy up for flinching to tossing a guy from 80 feet away ... Hohn's just plain embarrassing.

1. Right hand...who cares? Find a real reason to hate on him.
2. The knee is no longer a valid plate stance now or what?
3. Yeah he missed a call; big deal.
4. How else do you eject someone who is in the dugout? Get a clue.

And before you come and say it, no I'm not being disagreeable;
