I'd have no use for him. And he's the one that started the conversation, too. Horrible.

And what this clown doesn't realize is that Backman would run the bus over him and back it up over him again in a heartbeat.

that's horrible. Sadly there are lots of umpires who fit this mold. Coaches are NOT your friends!!!!

Thanks

Not a baseball umpire but rather a basketball official. This goes against the well established philosophy of never stabbing a fellow official in the back...much less on TV. Unbelievable!
