The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones.


That's a shame.

Now, with all the miscues, and faux pas in this post season, a proper call makes one take notice. That's a shame.


You're a "glass half empty" kind of guy, aren't you?

I haven't got giddy about an umpires call since Ron Luciano gunned down a runner at first.

I take that back. When a LL umpire employs rule 7.13, and can either make a run dissapear, or three runners return to their bases, then I give the standing O. Now <i>that's</i> a great call.

It was still good to see a "proper" call!
