Maybe it's just me, but I have no trouble throwing it one foot wide of glove hand side of the pitcher. I'll even pick up the catcher's mask/helmet if the ball is dead, or no runners on. Anything to speed up the game.
Now, it you can't make a quality toss, then don't. If you can't bend over easily to help your catcher out, fine, don't rip your drawers. But why bag on me because I throw straight, and can do more situps than you? And why is it such a big deal, for gosh sakes?
