Oh, Jim. I've got this feeling when I go do my games tomorrow I'll be walking with a limp. The one leg is just a little longer from all the pullin'.

What happens when the amateur league I assign says we are OBR except as amended by our own league rules (which are numerous, but at least I can get rulings). Does OBR mean MLB, Minor, or what? Do I give any more credit to NAPBL vs. JEA or J/R ???

I am even more interested just for our discussion purposes on the boards. I feel I did a good job in finding something in J/R , and 8 people say what about JEA. So next time I quote JEA and someone says what about NAPBL. Then I run into Carl authoring an article saying don't balk F1 because he came off with wrong foot but wasn't trying a pickoff----I check all 3 and they say balk, but Carl says "no intent".

Like, when do you go "by the book" vx. "intent" and then from what source? Isn't there a problem here of just quoting whatever we feel fits our point the best?

I am still waiting for Carl to put some "order" into these "authorities".


Just my opinion,
