That's the best argument for NOT allowing Eddings to "wing it" himself with the media, because (1) he would have embarrassed himself with poor grammar ("irregardless" is not a word) and (2) he would have lied (the ball wasn't clearly "declared" anything, that's the whole crux of the biscuit on that call. It appeared to all, based on Eddings' hammer signal, that the batter was "declared" out.)
