I've known Coach since he was an assistant coach at Notre Dame. Good guy. Too bad. Interesting thing with umpires- I used to have a very adversarial relationship with umpires. That doesn't work for a lot of reasons.
As a coach, we make bad calls all the time from the dugout and nobody knows. As long as umpires are hustling, in position, and have a great attitude- who am I to get upset if I don't agree with a call. If they are not in position, not working hard, and are combative by usurping their authority- now I have a problem. The great majority are good guys and there for the right reasons and it's fun to have a positive dialog throughout the contest.
