I quitely walked back behind cursing myself and glad that no one heard. The question is do I have an obligation to fix this in any other way? I don't think I put the defense or offense in jeopardy but wanted another opinion.
didn't we teach you anything? Never give back an out. I'm telling Tom, Malcolm and Bill...

Seriously, with the level of junior high ball around here, what constitutes "ordinary effort?" Is it "They shoulda caught it if they knew what they were doing?"

You didn't mention when you called the IFF. Was it before the ball reached its apex? Was the ball on the way down? Just things to keep in mind so we don't have to run you back through class for another three years...
