I was at a minor league game 2 years ago and the coach threw a chair out in the middle of the field and started kicking dirt at the ump. I was laughing so hard. What is it with kicking dirt at the ump? If I was an ump, I would probably make them even more mad because I would be laughing while they were kicking dirt on my shoes. I know it is supposed to be super disrespectful, but to me, it isn't. It's just funny.
