If by this you are calling these commercials stupid due to the way umpires are portrayed, I disagree. In my view, these commercials present the umpires as professionals in appearance and basic mechanics, unlike the usual where they might have a backward hat, not much of a uniform at all, etc.

The gripes with this one seem to be due to videographic composition rather than ignorance or lack of respect for umpires.

No indicator or brush? Really? 4-stitch hat? C'mon!

But, yeah, the BU is out of position in the softball one, but that seem to be for composition purposes, as I said above. If he had been where he was supposed to be, the final shot would not have been as dramatic.
