I genuinely believe some people would prefer to see emotionless robots competing, rather than people.

I hate KS, but if I were him, that ump would have an assault charge against me

Some umpires who dont understand the game by eoither playing /coaching it and have actually cared about the players around you will make the game about themselves(umpires) instead of let the game carry on.

Umpire is a fricking egghead

I wish all our athletes acted like Crews. Calm, cool and collected. I guess when you are just better than everyone else, you don't have to do that nonsense to bring attention to yourself. Just one opinion.

Unsportsmanlike: the opposite of sportsmanlike.

Even Crews has gone off on a team… Jay had to push him into the dugout against Tennessee after a teammate hit a homer. He was yelling at the Tenn dugout and Johnson got him off the field with the quickness.

Everyone and anyone can get emotional during a game.

That is not the same as yelling F**k You to an opposing player. Warning at the most.

The catcher was halfway to the dugout and he was staring at either the batter or ump.



Hard to tell who he was yelling at, but it definitely wasn't a teammate. Celebrations like that are borderline taunting, imo, and the only issue I can find with what he did.

Egregious. I know there's not a lot of room for confusion in baseball as to who's on what side, but that was horrendous.

I also don't care for teams wearing white pants on the road.

Thank last years Tennessee team for causing the SEC to overreact and crack down on player conduct.
I was thinking the exact same thing while watching the LSU series this past weekend. Prime example of when a few take advantage of a situation and the whole gets penalized for it.

Just for context, both dugouts were supposedly warned earlier in the game.

The umpires have been instructed to try and curtail the trash talk/taunting that has been far too prevalent in college baseball over the last few years. Stop with the “let the kids have fun” crap. You have fun by playing good baseball and celebrating with your team mates. No one with a straight face can tell me kids 15 years ago weren’t having fun playing baseball. There were not stare downs and flexes after every strikeout and there weren’t bat flips and softball antics after every double.

A lot of the blame falls on the coaches for not policing their own team. I will give Jay Johnson credit that I have seen him stop his players from arguing about an ump’s call and tell them to get in the dugout. But since many college coaches have refused to address the issue, umps are now having to take control of the game so that we don’t have brawls every three innings.

Keep your “celebrations” directed to your team mates. Quit trying to stare down and taunt the opposing team. Every college kid, and now high school kid, trying to flex on the other team is getting old. All of this really just started about 10 years ago.
What are you talking about? Just becuase you olds didn't have instant access to videos of every game above the high school level until 2010 doesn't mean this started in 2010.

Taunting has been going on for 50 years.

It's pathetic that 18 year old kids are being punished because 50 year olds complain about their "antics".

Paul Skenes is the best pitcher in the country and mocks every single player he strikes out. What he does would piss me off more than a pitcher yelling "let's go" and flexing.

If you don't like players talking shite after hitting a home run off of you, don't let them hit a home run off of you. Pretty simple.
