Telling other umpires what he was seeing there was absolutely nothing wrong with. If as you say he was being exuberant about it, especially doing it within earshot of the general public he was out of line.
As has been mentioned, the umpires that are not calling your daughter are not doing her any favors. As I have always said, alot of pitchers get away with things for a long time but sooner or later they are going to run into an umpire that is calling it and then what are they going to do?
I will say, Umpires get defended on this site without question. Is it not possible that the OP was 100%, and the Umpire in question was out of line? Why can't other Umpires just state; "he was out of line by suggesting other Umpires go get this girl"? I'm just at a loss on many occasions here on why Umpires here can't admit that there are crappy Umpires out there that can be jerks? Just like in every other line of work. Personally, I believe every word the OP said. He didn't say his daughter should have gotten away with the IP. He merely stated the Umpire in question was out of line with his exhuberance on "getting" his daughter.
