I've got to side toward Manny on this one.

TWP's in umpiring are like super ice in physics, or infinity in math. Not realistic, but very useful in proving points. You have to use extreme examples to make a case, and streching the limits of the rules is no different. If no one ever "what if'ed?" the rules we'd have very little to talk/argue/discuss/flame/rant about. And that's kinda what most of us are here for.

The pomposity of a few gasbags on this board sometimes overshadows the valuable information it imparts by the majority.
