Some may disagree with me on this one, but I once had a close play at 3B where the runner got tagged just a few inches shy of the base. He didn't like the call, and I had no problem with that.

But when I was returning to the plate, he loudly said to me from across the field, "I don't know why it is you've got it in for our team!"

I tossed him. Don't ever, EVER insinuate I'm biased. I had to defend my integrity.

The kicker of it all? I actually like his team. A GREAT bunch of guys who play hard and have fun. Not to mention the fact that I like this particular player as a pitcher, because he's got a GREAT delivery. Such a shame he thinks that I have some sort of grudge against them.

The next week, I spoke with their captain briefly about it. He completely understood.
