You Started It!
Tim,
Chill, baby! Except for your replies, there hasn't been an intent on anyone's part to ridicule someone's language. What I said was, the improper use of "lie" and "lay" is prevalent in the English language . . . including discussion boards for baseball officials. My reply above, by the way, was given in response to Pete's "tag" definition. I was also replying to graymules question and thought everyone would find it interesting that there's actually someone in the world who's compiling a list of misuses of those two words.
Just let sleeping dogs,lie. Or is it, "lay"?
Jerry
P.S. You do agree the runner's safe, don't you? You didn't make any mention of that in your reply.
