Are you a pitching coach DG? The opposite of consistent is inconsistent. Your point is just as absurd as the largeones, which is identical to yours. If the pitching is inconsistent, then it isn't very GOOD.
"Most good pitchers will vary their delivery with runners on base so base stealers don't get a consistent read which will make base stealing easy."
The word consistent does not mean SAME and I never used the word SAME. There were other comments about the set position and some about the stretch. It was a stretch to believe that consistent motion/mechanics means the same as "the same" pitching delivery. But somehow these comments were later attributed to me. Excuse me, I do believe the record shows that my comments were ONLY about the CONSISTENT mechanics and a couple of balk interpretations.
"As long as the delivery is legal, there is nothing illegal about varying the delivery from pitch to pitch or batter to batter."
I do love the 1st half of that sentence, it just about covers everything legal. Did I or anyone else present that legal sitch as an illegal balk? I think NOT. But you put me in that delicate position of being in the opposite corner once again, didn't you?
In summary, taking my comments out of context makes DG appear to be a more intelligent writer. In reality, DG's comment are more than absurd on face value alone. They are even more absurd when he tries to attach them to anyone else. I refuse to discuss a sitch with one hand tied behind my back. I never even hinted at anything DG said in his opening thread. For him to put me in a box and close it like that is very cute. It's funnier when everyone here jumps on the same ole bandwagon. If that is any indication of his other skills, I wouldn't brag about them.

Is your name GW Bush? It is ok to say I screwed up, you really won't be thrown off the forum. You have taken this beyond nauseaum, absurdity and stupidity.
Three words, "I am wrong".
The truth will set you free.
