"As usual" , please cite.



Of which I commented that "no excuse" is living in a world that does not exist. There are certainly times when one can get SLined as BU in this situation. As I also said, anyone who says they never have, unless they are noobs or only PUs, are lying. it's a fantasy to puff out your chest and claim to everyone, "Me to I NEVER EVER..., we are all so smart, aren't we?". Pure fantasy.

Some live on that false sense of perfection, others, like me, choose to live in reality.
Oh, just pick nearly any of your previous posts in which you jump off the track.

I would not claim to "never ever being straight-lined," but I can count the number of times working the bases where I've had to ask for help to make a call at first base on one hand over 20 long, hard seasons of HS varsity and upper level amateur baseball. So, while getting blocked out on calls occasionally happens, there still is no good excuse for it, and that's reality, not fantasy, on this planet, Earth.
