    Larry "Hollywood" Norton Hands down.
    And for you old timers on here Norton is the perfect last name for Larry. Who can figure that out? Hint if his first name was Ed it would be perfect.
    I love his dugout speech Its become a classic with our girls I think they have it memorised.

    Most animated umpire??

    LARRY NORTON IS A FREAKING JOKE!!!! Anyone that thinks everyone comes to a game to see his late entrance to the field and his showboat antics on the field, should be removed or at least reduced down to doing nothing but 8 and under t-ball or coach pitch games. As for Harvey, although I don't necessarily agree with the "Here we go miss batter, here we go!" at least Harvey does not interject himself into the flow of the game, he let's the players determine the outcome. This game is supposed to be about the girls and their talents.

    Had "Hollywood" the other week, he is a showboat, but he had a better strikezone than "Big Buddy". Heard Buddy is up in Iredell now doing games. Ya'll keep him up there !!

    Nobody Said They Enjoyed It----

    I'm not quite following your extreme comment, I'm not saying that I enjoy it, to be all honest it's kind of annoying to see all the antics that he can muster during the ball game, I was just merely stating the fact that I thought he was the most animated umpire that I know, and wanted others views who they thought !!! Nobody is condoning what he does !!!
