At a baseball game, I hate it when some jerk yells C'mon Blue because he thinks he knows how to call balls & strikes better than the umpire. Whadahell?! Wouldn't it be great to force that guy to get behind the plate to call balls & strikes? I mean, really, during the course of any game there are dozens of pitches that are so close that they might be called a ball or a strike. "Stuff a rag in it, Hot Shot!"

    Didn't they used to yell, "Kill the Umpire"

    I guess saying that at the ballpark these days might get you arrested. 😂

    Well, I'm berating the Big Mouths more than I'm defending MLB Umps. Umping/Reffing in any sport is rather difficult/subjective. I always figure that some calls will go for your team and some calls will go against them -- so it all kinda evens out.

    I agree the calls go both ways

    Consistency is what we all. want
