There have been times, and this looks like one of them, when the umpire justs needs to be wanted. Coach: I know the rules, you are wrong. Ump: Ya' know coach, maybe you're right. Get me your scorebook so I can note your protest. Coach: I didn't say anything about protesting the game. Ump: C'mon coach. You've got all that experience, I'm sure you feel that a protest is appropriate or you wouldn't be out here telling me how stupid I am. Please, coach, let me sign your book. Coach: Well, aahh, I don't know, aahh, maybe I don't, well, you know, want to, aahh, protest. Ump: Aawwwe, dang it all! And here I so badly wanted to make sure I got this right. Are you sure you don't want to protest, coach? Coach: Ummm, no, I don't think so, not this time. Ump: Good, thank you. Now go sit down and watch the game. Play! JMHO,
