Tax the ump

Rep. Jeff Roorda, D-Barnhart, Missouri, wants a new law to get back at the umps. The state lawmaker and Cardinal fan admits it was born of frustration at what he deems bad calls during the recent baseball playoffs. He wants to expand the existing state tax on athletes and entertainers who come from out of state to include persons such as umpires and referees. (AP report).
