About 10 yrs ago I was playing in a league and one of the officials answered his cell phone DURING the game, DURING a live ball...and no his wife wasn't pregnant, nor was anybody dying, he just thought that since it was a blowout he didn't really need to pay attention...and yes I read him the riot act...

ok mr. smarty pants I did the exact math and it was 8 yrs ago which IS "about 10 yrs ago"...however, I will note that I had the original motorola flip phone back around 1994-95 and you could fit that in your pocket...and they have obviously gotten progressively smaller since then......

I had that cell phone. I think my plan had about 30 minutes a month on it.
