Speaking up for his right to be a shitty umpire while keeping his professional integrity.

Good luck to LoDuca.

Sounds like Joe has a case. Hopefully he either wins enough money to retire or the judge tells him in a makeup call on life to fuck off and dismisses the case.

Let's hope for the latter. That fat tub of goo needs to be gone in the worst way.

No fan of Joe West, but if that claim is at all false, I hope Joe grounds Lo Duca into a fine powder.

If Lo Duca's claim is true, then that would of course be the end of Joe, and perhaps might knock the umpire's union down a few pegs.

He can't back him up.

He never pitched to LoDuca in a game when West was behind the plate.

Wins $500k in the defamation suit:

https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb-umpire-joe ... OpNPCU8V3v

Quote:
West sued four-time MLB All-Star Paul Lo Duca for defamation after Lo Duca accused him on a podcast of trading strike calls for off-field favors. A Manhattan Supreme Court judge ruled in West's favor Monday and ordered Lo Duca to pay him $500,000 plus interest.

Seems like that would be an easy claim to verify.

Seems like a joke that cost this guy 500k.

It cost him 500K because he didn't even respond in court.

All he had to do was hire an attorney and the whole thing would have gone away with a retraction and an apology.

Probably cheaper to pay than hire an attorney.

Made 30 million in his career but hasnt cashed a mlb check in 13 years. 500k gotta sting a bit.

It seemed like it was a pretty easy case for Joe West to win so he probably did save some money just letting it happen.

I like all three guys on the ESPN crew individually, but as a trio they are horrible.

The tiff they got into over that Anderson gaff was kind of amusing.

I'm sure that Ravich knows that Tim K. will never criticize an official scorer, and just kept on goading him because it was such an obvious miss.

The Country Cocksucker is gone, bye bye.

By the way, that was his nickname as a C.C. (Crew Chief)
