Mike, you used the wrong its. Oh wait (he said, getting it), you did that to make your point! You sly fox you!

You are correct. It is not an English textbook. In some cases, the only way to properly make a point or a case is to use some syntax or idiom or whatever that is not correct.

How many of you are on AOL? You hear something that is VERY incorrect practically every time you sign on. ("You've got mail," for those of you scoring at home.)

This is not directly solely at people on this board (as SRW can attest), but if some folks spent as much time working on their umpiring as they do on grammar, we'd have a vastly improved umpire corps.

We all know what the rule means. Move on.
