As far as making the worst call ever goes, I'm accused of that several times a year.
Speaking of liars...

I had once tossed a player for calling me a "jack@$$" during a game. He swore to the coach he didn't do anything wrong, but a couple nights afterward, he was having a brew with his coach, and he said, "well, I might've said something like that."

Coach gave him a one game suspension for lying to him, on top of the one game suspension the league gave him for getting tossed.

Thanks, coach!

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
