Hmmm,
I am not exactly sure WHY I am answering since "Whowefoolin" claims to be leaving the thread.
Well here goes,
Whowefoolins last answer is just stupid. He has attempted to take the play and bend everything towards himself and has failed miserably. Luckily none of us will be forced to work a game with him.
The stupid part is that there is no arguing with "whoweFOOLin" cuz, sadly he just doesn't get it.
EVERY authoritive reference agrees with the postion that the HITTER SHOULD NOT MOVE . . . whowe blows against the wind and gets more arrogant every time.
The facts DO NOT change sir, EVERY authority and even official rulings support the other 99% and you refuse to open your mind to learn.
Your reference to any of us being "rule book thumpers" (i.e. "carrying the rule book to the field") is just another incrediably childish and silly statement. The people that have posted to this thread are FAR from the guys that call the letter of the rule. The facts stand you have ignored advice from some of the stronger internet representatives that post.
WHO, I am just a simple man. I have argued for years that "umpiring ain't that tough" -- I would like to think that you have begun pulling our collective legs as you get deeper into the absurdity of your logic.
I therefore also leave the thread knowing that you can lead an a$$ to water but . . . you get the rest.
