I wouldn't feel bad if I was a White Sox fan because he's not picking on them. Joe West is just a terrible ump.

some of the umps got some serious ego.

most of them are actually good but some of them are on a power trip.

Joe Maddon was ejected last night by the home plate umpire over a timeout not called for Carlos Pena.

Once maddon had finished his tirade at the plate, he turned a walked towards 3B ump Joe West, and started ripping at that jerk......telling him the non TO call was West's effing fault for comments he made about speeding up the game.

Hilarious.
