Something I Just Don't Understand


What's he looking at? Where is he going to point and why?

Why not just tell the man, "okay, you're done" and just move on?

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

I would say the object is to let everyone know what is happening. Inquiring minds....

What is the rule about jewelry in MLB? We don't let the players wear them. Shouldn't we give the good example?

It's a show, Mike. Entertainment. You know that! At least in the majors we don't have ejected managers tossing pretend grenades from behind the mound!

That's got to be a pretty rare photo. Bobby Cox hardly ever argued or got thrown out, right?

That's correct, he was never thrown out on a day that did not end with a "y".

Tom, I know they think its a show, that's why they have so many uniforms

But I still don't see the need. The PA will let people know when someone has been tossed. For that matter, the person tossed will let everyone know

Two colors qualifies as "so many uniforms"?
