Also common in this thread is their habit of seizing on an umpire they perceived to be picked on, usually one who is a bit naive, (remember Canadianump 6?) and then defending him to the hilt. Then there's the trademarrk overuse of the Big Grin smilie when ever he thinks he's being clever.

Check the archives.

Eventually their meanspiritedess gets the better of the and they become downright vicious. We've lost some good posters because of those two.

Mike: Caveat Emptor. Your new "sponsor" will turn on you eventually.

I figured they all came from the same bag of crazy.

Indeed we have. I miss reading Garth's posts on here.

Mr. Umpire and Welp, don't you think your conversation would be best as PMs instead of cluttering up the officiating discussions with off topic ramblings, accusations and general BS?

Says the BS master.

What's wrong with the video? I have used it a few times in my clinics. I have seen the longer version - an inning prior and after. It's good stuff for training umpires how to respond to situations.

The poster that put it up is a well known troll around these parts and posted it in an attempt to take a cheap shot at Rich.

My apologies but how is it a cheap shot at Rich?

For what it's worth, I love the quote in your signature. Though I'm a Cubs fan, Veeck was a genius.

So much for on topic posts and my PM suggestion.

Gentlemen...Don't forget the ignore feature.

I haven't had to use the ignore feature in a long, long time. So I found it funny when I went to add STB to the ignore list, I found Fitump56 was already there. I also had Poosey and Canadianump 6 on the ignore list.

Thanks Former Ump, I wasn't aware. It will make this place so much more enjoyable.
