That's a good story, and I'd agree with the results.

Most people have come to know, (and replay after replay now on TV show it) that most of the time even on close calls, the umpires are correct.

Thanks

No doubt, they do one hell of a job.

Although most people probably think 45-minutes prior to each game they choose 4 guys from the local bar to come call the game.

They do an excellent job and get almost all the calls correct. If they would only aspire to get as CLOSE to 100% correct as possible and leave some of the old age EGO out of the equation. This post season has seen way too many bad calls, some of the mechanics and theories of when to huddle should be under review.

You make a good point, RF. Too bad it's on top of your head!!
Wow. He sure told you Rich. What wit. What panache. What originality. For a moment I thought Noel Coward came back from the grave.

What was that whizzing sound?

Oh yeah. The sound of Garth's jape going over so many heads...

Hm. This is going to send me back to the lab to rework my theory of sarcasm...
