A place to appreciate the twentieth century comic character Everett True of "The Outbursts of Everett True." Feel free to check out the sticky.

I could see Everett taking the opposite view as well "HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE THE FAIR MAN DOING HIS JOB JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE A GAMBLING FIEND AND BET ON THE WRONG TEAM?!"
although he has been gambling in the past
Everette would’ve loved online sports betting
That's an umpire, not a ref.
I don't know why they have a different name.
Clearly I am very knowledge in sports haha
What's the difference?
Wikipedia says the position of umpire is "analogous to that of a referee in many other sports."
Masks and padding?
That's just the home plate umpire. The base umpires don't have padding and masks.
Well shit. You right.
"Enrico Palazzo, Enrico Palazzo!"
I bet when E-Tru goes to sporting events, they have an entrance song ready for him.
"...AND IT'S EVERETT TRUE WITH A BASEBALL BAT!!!" (cue "Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture")
Hall of Famer Whitey Ford on the field… pleading with the crowd for some kind of sanity. Uh-oh. And a barrage of pretzels now knocking Whitey unconscious. This is a black day for baseball.
