Have any of the people jumping to the conclusion that I am a moron ever considered this mechanic before this thread or, TRIED it out?

Did anyone else see the article?

Again, as I have said, I am not certain it is a better mechanic.

I am certain that I read about it in referee Magazine and I find it worth consideration and discussion.

I am certain that, in person, most umpires I have asked about this also seem to dismiss it without consideration. I am talking about respectful questions with completely dismissive answers-often with less than a hearbeat to respond.

If you look up above, only one poster found any possible positives with this mechanic.

If anything I posted offended anyone, it was not intentional. I was trying to have an actual discussion about this idea. I have about 6 years experience in FP Softball...a LOT less than a lot of the posters here. I learn a lot from a lot of more experienced guys that I have worked with. I am sorry if I gave off an impression that I am not willing to LEARN...Good Grief---If I didn't want to learn, why would I subscribe to Referee and come here?

I am trying to call GOOD because that is what Papa C said in one of his videos.
