Thank you. I am dedicated, & motivated to make you a happy Umpire on this site. I know what the required call is, I was trying to change the topic.

[QUOTE=mbcrowder;829040]MOST of the time, this statement is untrue. If you don't see what the problem is, you're part of the problem - please reread the rule or head to a clinic. (No offense intended)

Sarcasm at its best, Thanks

I have been guilty of sarcasm here, no doubt. But not in this post. I was trying to be clear and to the point. Seriously - if you don't see what the problem is in the scenario described, you are contributing to the problem itself. The problem here is not the rule - it's that a decent number of umpires are ruling this incorrectly - creating inconsistency - hence those that don't get it are the REASON for the problem.

Where's the sarcasm?

Not sure of the purpose of your 2nd sentence. As far as changing the topic, please don't make that a habit. Threads get muddy that way.

We have a hard enough time staying on topic once someone brings up beer...

If its OK with mike, I don't drink. I know that is not an Umpire Tradition. But hay different strokes for different folks. I see muddy is ok for the BUDDIE SYSTEM on here.

Not Sure ? If someone has a different view than you. They are wrong and you attack. Also do not tell me what to do, my habits are mine, you can't apply any (code) to that. Have a beer with your buddies clear out the muddy in your thread and continue to march

Maybe there's an idiom you're using that is not translating well... but I see no correlation between THAT, and "I am dedicated, & motivated to make you a happy Umpire on this site."

Also do not tell me what to do

I said please.

PS - I disagree that I attack when others are wrong. I attack back when others make smart comments at me claiming I'm wrong when the error is, in fact, their inability to read what they themselves are replying to.

The translation of my idiom is I would like to use this site as a place of learning, as well as having some fun... And because you said please I guess its OK if you tell me what to do.

I have some standards, but I'm not nearly as fussy as some here.

Next time my wife and I visit Florida (usually Palm Beach area), I'll give you a shout.

First round's on me.

Beer! Over the weekend I sampled my latest brew, a Pale Ale that was patterened after Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Nice citrusy aroma, good balance between malt and hops, and medium-bodied. First brew I've done in over 3 years, and it's one of my best!

Time to brew again, otherwise, I'm gonna run out of stock! If you guys are ever near Dallas, let me know.

I need to find a workable clone recipe for Young's Oatmeal Stout. As it is no longer available, I would still like to be able to sample it.
