Bigdawg,

Rather than work yourself into a frenzy because of that red cape I waved in front of you, Ponder this. I thought I knew the rules of basketball. Then we integrated, and I quickly learned a whole new way to play the game from my new friends. Ticky tack fouls were not going to be called, even though the way we played was a little rougher than the pontificating rule makers intended. The game itself changed, and in a good way.

In the same vein, for those of you who have either played or coached softball (which is most of you), I don't think that any of you are ever going to throw me out on the ticky tack scenario I laid out. Further, I believe that as a sport we are on a course to morph towards the way little ball is played.

That's my opinion, and if I do get tossed, it will be the first time ever, and I will report back to you what happened.
