Great umpire heckling

I bet I can guess who said that!!!

Wow - what a great umpire heckle! I'll have to remember that one...

Best one I've heard, "Hey blue!...If you had one good eye, you'd be a cyclops!"

Heard one this weekend.

"Shake that glass eye!"

one of my favorites has to be

"hey blue, I thought only cows slept standing up"

So whats so funny about heckling Umpires????????..........


ok, so maybe it can be......


"move around ump, your killing the grass"
" How did you get that square head in the round mask?"
"Lenscrafter called, they will be ready in 30 minutes"

Not that I have ever been heckled...........but if you need a laugh......try this

Under the requirements necessary to become an umpire........just under a thick skin......you should find a sense of humor.......

R Rated - Bend over and use your good eye.

To quote one of my favorite posters:

quote:

I've seen better Blues in a box of crayons!

On the lines with the lens crafters, an ump told me once he ejected a kid for bringing him a coupon for lens crafters after having struck the kid out looking.

Hey Blue, You're supposed to look through the bars not at them!

My favorite:

Son's pitching a shutout and his curve was really working for him that day, had batters swinging in the dirt, bailing out of the box ...

Mid-way through the game he throws a hard breaking 3/4 curve that just misses the low-inside corner. Ump calls it a ball (and it was). One fan calls out "all day long, all day long". Ump glares over his shoulder at him, motions inside with his hand. Another fan(not me) calls out "you've been callin' that a strike all day long, don't get a conscience now". Even the Ump thought that was funny.

piaa_ump,

Who'd a thunk there's actually a WEB-SITE containing classic heckles for all occasions?

I guess we should have known...!!!

Kb,

Another sad commentary on the world we live in.....however funny it may be......

Geez, ump, if I had eyes like yours, I'd be a POTATO.

You're missing a good game ump"

Careful with that one, mic, the heckles site provides a great answer:

"I know, but I had to call this one instead."

These are a couple of G-version ones:

Yo, blue, forget the puppy and the cane?

C'mon blue, raise your right hand and repeat after me.

Hey blue, you'll never make it to the varsity working like this.

Yo, blue, what are you looking at the ball for? Hasn't helped you all day.

"I see.....it's OK for you to be bad, but not OK for us to talk about it."

piaa_ump - nice to hear from you! Might be my imagination, but it has been awhile.

My favorite is:

"Can we appeal that call to your dog?"

URKillingmeblue,

No it is not your imagination. Although I remain a daily reader of the HSBBWeb, I have opted not to post.

In the past few months the trolls, baiting and bickering has gotten the best of me and I find it best for me to decline to participate.

As the season draws upon us, I'm sure that I will post more often in the "Ask the Umpires" forum or in the forums where I feel I can contribute.
