Ump Calls Sox-Yanks’ Slow Play Embarrassing. But More Than His Gizzard Neck?

It’s total hypocrisy if Joe West doesn’t get fined.  He’s criticizing the players’ on-field performance, which is what players are always fined for: commenting on the umpire or official’s performance.

Chew before swallowing...

Clearly he’s angered by professional athletes’ unwillingness to cater to the limitations of his obese, “haven’t seen my penis in two years” body, which is the most embarrassing and pathetic element of this story.  Instead of criticizing the league’s two most successful teams for playing sound baseball (maybe their success has something to do with their pace, huh, Joe?),  he should petition for his own hot dog vendor and the right to sit on a stool during games, or maybe just call them remotely from a Denny’s.  Perhaps he wants to speed up the games so that players will have more time to eat, so they hopefully gain weight and he won’t feel as bad about himself.   I love that he was quoted in the Bergen Record – big time.  I wonder what percentage of the interview was done with food in his mouth?  You’re paid to call balls and strikes for the most competitive baseball games in the world – shut up.
