Cool Thread Speaks for the Bored

Suggestion for 2007 Fed Rules Committee

SAump brings OUT a glaring hole between RULE 3-3 and RULE 7-6.

It isn't PRETTY calling an ambulance to come cart off the catcher after a triple. It isn't very satisfying watching the sub-runner score a run on a PASS BALL, because the newbie sub-catcher had no experience behind the plate. I cannot suppport RULE 3-3 because I have seen some of these plays up close and personal. I will continue to enforce RULE 7-6 and take my stand in front of the protest committee. I will not turn and hide from another collision at the plate. Its just a GAME to be continued SAFELY. I lose nothing for trying. JMOHO.

Perhaps FED hid the INFRACTION in 3-3 because FED (YOU and all other ruling bodies, except ONE) will allow the batter to hit the catcher with the bat after a swing and continue on to 1B, 2B, 3B or HR. If that is a POSITION you feel is acceptable, DO NOTHING and enforce 3-3.

One thing I know about this thread, each one of my post was ON TOPIC. You twist and ignore my words and make things UP about my comments. I could point at the insults and I could easily turn your words around ti-for-tat. I laugh and learn how your sling insults from the peanut gallery to elevate your STATUS. I don't try to alter the direction of YOUR comments. I am not interested and I choose to let that roll off me. PEACE.
