I've seen Joe in person a couple of times this year, and he doesn't move an inch any more. I recall a couple of line calls where he barely got turned around, much less hustle down to see a ball near the line. Sad.

Some will tell you he's earned that right. I do not agree with that point of view.

As for the casual call, there was a great one last night on a check swing for strike three to end an inning. I was coinflip call, but the guy at third, instead of going through some crazy gymnastics, gave an easy fist at chest level. Awsome call, and I laughed out loud at it.
