I hear that one!!

I know there's a theme song out there for a former wrestler with his name in it!!

Haha.....I love all these pics. Yeah, I've been blessed with this one, she has no clue how much money we have, is too scared of spending way too much money, and lets me keep the books! :-)

Haha....thanks!! Now let's see how much she'll interfere with my umpiring and playing.

I see a the game is still live until you leave the field type rule telling us that the kids are your responsibility until your buttox crosses outside of the chain fence type of rule coming.

Ok, this is no baseball milestone, but definitely a great milestone in my life that I felt like sharing with everyone. On Saturday, May 29th, 2010, I became a married man.

I agree.

All-right, when I run out of Murphy's I'll look into this stuff.

Well if you try it out and it works for you, make sure to let me know.

I don't doubt it. I like down in the sticks, it is a major suprise that my family isn't racist. I just can't believe someone actually made the corrolation that one player was Jewish and the other was Black. What kind of person has that kind of time on their hands? I know I sure as hell don't!

I think it's funny how one of the commentors called Davidson a "racist."

Oh I see how it is. I finally go out and buy my Murphy's and you discover the next big rave the next day. This is just like the time I bought the computer with the Pentium processor, very next day the Pentium II was announced.

It's a ploy to try to make things safer. Before long, we'll have little Johnny wrapped up in so much bubble wrap before he starts the game, you'll literally have to change the coach no touchy rule just in order to get him rolled on to first base!

Nope.....it's with the new posts. It just automatically takes me to the end saying that all the posts were read. It's only on this post, too. Very, very strange. Anyways.....a question for all you college veterans out there. Swinging third strike, I just use my normal hammer motion while saying, "three" (of course it sounds like I'm saying "thud"), acceptable or not? I started doing this while umpiring the lower levels. I would typically have batters linger in the batters box after swinging strike three, so I just started doing that in order to inform the young'ins it's time to move on. I'm hoping one day I'll be able to grace the college fields, and am wondering if this is a habbit that'd best be broken before trying to move on to the next level. Edit: Check, that, it sounds more like a low grumbling "threw" after some evaluation.

I'd be willing to put my mosquitos to yours.

Hell, if I could look at instant replay with slow-motion from 15 different camera angles I bet I would get 99% of my calls right.

NICE!!!

I can see a few problems with the catcher's gear issues. I know it shouldn't take too long to get your gear on, but sometimes, stuff happens.

A good umpire can smell a strike from 60 feet away. I like that one!

Awesome....I love watching an official go into the hall of fame. That typically means something!!

I found this post on "Guidelines For Umpire Evaluations" interesting and have nominated it accordingly for "Post Of The Month May, 2010"

Wow....now I know what I need to work on. Thanks Brian!

It sucks seeing someone get hurt, but what can you do about it. I've got a live ball and a good call in my book.

He wasn't mad one bit!!

I'm starting to believe that more and more each day catoblue.
