Usually I find people that think umps are "part of the game" and essential to the experience
Have never actually played a competitive organized sport above the level of grade school

This will eventually all work itself out...
and for the better
Q: Name something that offends Republicans?

Unions.
Think of the entertainment value as the home plate ump announces the call.

Maybe because we didn't have the technology.
Anything which increases fairness is good by me. Bring on the robot overlords.
