Screw-ups

There are so many posters on this board and other boards that are so quick to post about a screw-up by an umpire that they saw on TV, that I'm surprised no one has posted about the screw-up in the Georgia vs. FSU game on Sunday (late) afternoon.

I know the game was only on regional tv in the Southeast, but I know there are a lot of posters from that area of the country...one of them had to have been watching the game. In addition, a picture of the screw-up ran on the national AP wire.

Let's just say it involved the plate umpire getting physically in the way of the catcher attempting to make a tag on the runner coming home from third. (And that sentence is the equavilent of me saying that "Romeo and Juliet is a love story"...in otherwords there's a lot more to it.).

You can see an AP photo here:

OK...now lets all post about how we can learn from this mistake...
