I try my best to not eject someone, Durham, and because it was the first inning of the first game, I admit I bent over backward to not eject him right away. True, it shouldn't matter what inning it is, but at the time he didn't cross that line that results in an ejection--at least to me he didn't. I am sure I could have easily been justified in ejecting him at some point, and perhaps I should have, but in hindsight, it didn't matter. I was off his Christmas card list regardless.

I am not singling out any specific person by name, Kevin, but what I think I'm trying to say is that it seems whenever someone posts here about a play they handled or a rule/ruling, SOMEone has to reply and pick apart or nitpick or find fault with such OP's handling of the situation, even if the OP happened to do everything perfectly.

I lump such people into the category of those who don't give the time when asked what it is; instead, they reply with instructions on how to build a watch.

I would hope that someone would slap me once or twice if I end up being too nitpicky or anal about something.
