Hey if it wasnt for beating dead horses, there would be little to talk about.
It is my opinion that ASA has switched from being the leader on a mechanic/mechanic change/rule change to the follower.
"Lets wait and see how that works _____________" then we'll try it.
I also consider that some mechanics are dumbed down to cater to a lower quality umpire than who is at other levels of ball. ... resulting in inferior mechanics for ASA umpires at every level.
This is why ASA no longer leads the way.
