Sorry, JW. I just don't see a time where I would run all the way down the line to eject a player who committed an unsportsmanlike act right in front of my partner, unless I was working with a rookie. If he had his back to the incident, then sure, I would issue the ejection. Along those lines I would be pretty pissed if my partner came running out from behind the plate to eject a runner for MC at second base if it was my call to make.


There wasn't a good reason for him not to eject this idiot, but that still doesn't make it my call.


Tim.

If he hits my partner with a bat and my partner is unconscious, can I eject him then?

No, but you are entitled under rule 16.4 to hit him with the bat in retaliation.

You don't have to run down the line. Just yell really loud from where you are. Everyone will hear you. It sure worked for Angel Hernandez yesterday!

Absolutely!

The way I've handled this problem on a couple of occasions in the past was to simply walk over to the coach and tell him if you don't want to deal with the problem, I will. They know what I'm talking about and said problem is taken care. Much easier and less painless on all parties involved. This comes from being around the game for many years and understanding the principles involved.
Just what is your ejection count up to now? Inquiring minds want to know!

Speaking of obsession, you seem to have an obsession for responding to Tim and me, and not so much to anyone else. Using the third person singular does not disguise your intent of a personal attack.

TussAgee11, I believe I have located your magical troll.

Yeah, I tried putting him on my list too, then he started being a normal person for a few days, and I took him off. Now it appears he's back to throwing insults around. He likes to talk about my weight and health, and he doesn't have a clue of what he's talking about. I guarantee he wouldn't say these things to me face to face, because I would squash him like a bug.

Now he's going back on the ignore list, since he obviously wants me to drop over dead. What a nice guy.

How did you know he was being normal if he was on your ignore?

Wouldn't it be terrible if I was still posting while you were drooling all over yourself. Think about that for awhile. Put me down all you want. It's only cyberspace.
Weight is down, cholesterol never been up, shape I'm in irrelevant. I have health conditions which have nothing to do with weight. I do not drool. You are a fool and a tool. If I saw you in person I'd kick your really in great shape, 200 crunches a$s all over the place.

I'll answer the ejection count question: Still 0.

Good grief. Throw this one on the top of the pile. If this unwarranted personal attack is not enough to get PWL out of here, I suppose we should all simply leave on our own accord. Haven't we had enough of this drivel yet?

Moderators?

My ignore list is ineffective if you won't stop quoting him

Joe, if we don't quote him, he erases his posts to make us look as if we are talking to ourselves, the old "who, me?" innocent act. When we quote him, his attacks are permanent record, and all his deleting of posts won't help. He is now safely back on my ignore list, but I don't mind seeing his asinine comments quoted if it's going to help rid us of him.

The only way that this board will be rid of his incessant attacks and nonsense is for more people to lodge a complaint. I know he's warned PWL several times to stop the nonsense and probably has him on a short leash anyway. Personally I don't want to see him go. I just wish he would grow up and try to learn something from the board instead of acting like a child all the time. Then again, I'm a perpetual optomist...........
