I think it condtradicts itself about pitching regulations and balks. I'm in the camp it isn't a balk. Others say it is.

Not sure I have the right rule citations, but I don't care. Now go make yourself a peanut butter sandwich, take a deep breath to calm dowm, READ them and see what you think, and quit trying to be a pain in people's behind.

However, if this was on a FED test, they would more than likely say it is a balk.
Hmmm... I've been nothing but cordial to you. Why is it that any conversation anyone has with you degenerates like this? Insane? No... and you kind of made my point for me. Yes - pitching regulations start when the pitcher toes the rubber ... so how in the world could what he's doing BEFORE toeing the rubber be a balk? That was my point with the sandwich. I know what I think. And for the record, until you started , I was completely calm.

Oh please. You reply to his statements with complete sarcasm and when he calls you on it, it's like "Moi?? I have been zee perfect gentleman" Here's the dictionary definition of sarcasm:

In sarcasm, ridicule or mockery is used harshly, often crudely and contemptuously, for destructive purposes. It may be used in an indirect manner, and have the form of irony, as in “What a fine musician you turned out to be!” or it may be used in the form of a direct statement, “You couldn't play one piece correctly if you had two assistants.”

I admit I pull out the sarcasm from time to time, but not with him, or at least not in this thread and not in quite a while ... after all, I just recently took him off ignore, so it's not like I've been blistering him with regularity recently.
