The irony I recognize on a more personal level is your endorsement of a citation that is based on a statement in the General Instructions to Umpires. I can remember a time when my citations of that same section of the rulebook earned only a dismissive "that stuff is all obsolete and not part of the real rules anyway" response. I think you were on the side that held that view, weren't you?
