Wow, what a jerk. You read into his post something he didn't say or imply ... and then tell him that if he thinks what he didn't say he thought, he should hang em up. What is your problem?

What was the purpose of the OP? Just to inform us, or to announce something to us that you disagree with ... that is not clear.

Try decaf, Junior. As explained earlier, I replied to the tone received. Okayyyyyy?!?!? So what's the problem with that?

I merely posted the new mechanic that the NCAA wants implemented. They were word for word from Tom Hiler, through Rich Fetcheit. I suggest that those two men know far more about what is apparopriate for umpiring than any here, myself included. They chose to urgently broadcast it two days ago. I simply posted it for others who hadn't read the change yet. If you have long practiced this mechanic, good for you. Call the NCAA and see of they need help with the 2013 changes.

FWIW Mike, you seem to have read Ozzy's remarks differently that I read them.

Maybe that wouldn't have been the case if Ozzy didn't go off like a half cocked gun most of the time.

There are a lot of people that go over the top here. Nothing new or unusual.

Peace

Yeah, it's hell when your reputation preceeds you.

Bob, if you ask me a question here do you use multiple question marks and exclamation points after elongating the last consonant of the query?

I simply posted the latest NCAA mechanics change. It was met with "Okayyyyyy?!?!? So what's the problem with that?" from Ozzy. If anyone misread something, it was he. I have no issue with the mechanic.

I don't know, do I?!?!?

In any event, this has gone on long enough. Thanks for posting the change.
