Greymule and Kevin F:

This is your official reminder.

:D

Oh, be sure to return the favor!

To me, it's not the sex that's the issue. The issue is the appearance of favoritism, and it stems from fraternization, not sex.

For example, if a judge was caught dating or spending more time with a lawyer, questions will come out on whether he favored that lawyer in court proceedings. Whether they were in bed together doesn't matter much at all.

Sanford's case was more about lying and not doing his job.

I also stated very plainly that her being caught doing it should result in her being dismissed. And I make that statement because a personal relationship between a player and an umpire shows impropriety. I even compared it to a judge having a relationship with a prosecutor.
Sanford's case caused a dual uproar, and his abandoning his post for five days was one of them. I was referring to the business of his having a mistress and all of the lunacy and hypocrisy that it caused. It may not have been more important than his leaving his post, but it certainly was one of the prominent aspects, and the reaction to it was laughable.

I want to know should the player also get in trouble for sleeping with the umpire? If she should get fired, what should happen to the player..

His wife didn't think it was funny.

I think the player should be forced to sleep with Mark Sanford, Bill Clinton and David Letterman.

I meant its being blown up bigger than any other aspect and made a colossal spectacle was what was laughable. It's the personal lives of human beings that are being toyed with, including children's.

Don't know and don't care what she did off the field. Bottom line, she was not a good umpire and was kept longer than many who didn't miss the things she did on the field.

So what you're saying is she sucked two different ways.

That makes more sense.

Nope. I'm saying she wasn't AAA material. That's all.

Five pages of sheesh!
 

Great comment, ENuf said.
Any more doubters out there?

Have there been doubters?
