so if a runner had been kncoked flat on her azz rounding First by a fielder, the TD seriously didnt want OBSTRUCTION called? ---puzzled---

I dont think so--exhibition or not.

Well, I was not there for the meeting of the umps for the two games, only went by what an umpire who at both of them told me. I found the statement very funny, strange..... but funny. I allude it to when I played on some scout teams (officially called The Arizona High School Prospect League) in HS where the catcher called balls and strikes and there weren't any umps. You just went and played.

Its cool, sometimes things like sarcasm and humor are hard to express in print. I know I have sent a few emails where people have taken what I wrote in the wrong text because it is hard to convey emotions.
