CB Buckner...

[JumpOnBoard]

He'll be canned by this weekends set right? This guy has been incompetent for years.

What did he do this time?

 

[oakas]

CB has been an embarassment to MLB for quite some time.

Along with Angel Hernandez and Laz Diez, these guys should not set foot on an MLB field.

MLB has to do something about this.

Wow just watched it, he missed that pitch by a foot.

Dipshit was behind the dish last Wednesday in the Dback/Giants game and Goldy clearly foul tipped the ball off the mitt and into the ground, yet strike 3 called...Lovullo came out to argue with CB and Brenly, who's the analyst for the Dbacks just said "Torrey, it's a waste of time with this guy". They then proceeded to show footage of Brenly getting tossed by Bucknor back in the day as a manager. When Berthiaume asked Brenly if he remembered what he was arguing about to get run, Bob said it wasn't just a call but a collection of things, basically because he's CB Bucknor and it just had built up lol. Still holds the grudge 15 years later.

He was absolutely awful last night in Nats/Braves, called several pitches that were a foot outside strikes and also some really questionable high strikes. The coup de gras though was on the final batter calling a foul ball when he swung and missed by a foot. The game appeared to be over and MASN went to commercial only to come back and say unbelievably the game wasn't over and Kelley had to throw another pitch and struck him out. Jayson Werth went after him after the game and had to be restrained. Just a freaking joke....

I honestly don't even know what to say... I'm speechless. No umpire or official should be immune just because they're unionized. This isn't the fucking police we're talking about.

He's a total embarassment, has been for so long.

At least with Joe West, he knows what he's doing most of the time, just insists on being center of attention. With CB it's complete incompetence, every decision he makes during a game is a roll of the dice.

Glad I could get the juices flowing at ump/ref outrage.

no fucking way. Will probably get a raise or take Joe West's job as president of assholes who suck at umpiring MLB. Better yet, they'll probably be co-presidents
