I am not against TWP's but they cause problems that drive many people crazy. The TWP's themselves are not bad, it's the constant "okay, I see your point, but what if....". Simply put, most TWP posts never end.

Furthermore, you get people who feel as though their opinion is the only correct one. These individuals then run the entire post flashing their "rules knowledge" and discount everything else. An example would be: R1, 1 out. F1 in contact with the rubber allows the ball to slip out of his hand. The ball rolls off the mound toward the plate. It never crosses the foul line. There are those who insist that this is a pitch. Could it roll all the way to the plate to be offered at by the batter? I guess it's possible but in 45 years of baseball, I've never seen it or heard of it happening! But again, there are those who insist that this is a pitch.

TWP's are alright, but someone has to know when to reel in the fish and stop the thread.
