Poisonous personalities

[LMan]

I'm kind of at a loss here. Why would you subject yourself to this for an entire game for no reason or benefit to the game? Purgatory?

I would have esp used my 'substitute' status to run those guys pronto (maybe a warning or two). Ann Landers always said, "no one can take advantage of you without your permission."

IMO, your laxity here just made life hell for the next umpire(s) that have to deal with these two jewels. Sometimes you need to take out the trash so others don't have to....
