I say enforce the rules as written. If you're gonna nit-pick, no jewelry. Medic-alert necklace/bracelet taped down. The rest gotta go.

Complete DB move by whoever brought it to the umpires attention and asked it to be removed. :shakehead:

Secondly complete DB announcers -- "This seems to be an umpire initiated ..." :FIRE:

I saw an interview with Dickey last night and he was saying he didn't appreciate how the umpires delayed the game.

I don't know why the second or 3rd conversations would have been necessary.

I believe it had to be brought up by Dusty. He's been wearing it in all of his games. He was probably so emotional because it was made by his daughters before he went to Mount Kilimanjaro. I don't get why it was such a problem after though.

Even though this is crap, since it was on glove hand and same color, once requested we should enforce the rule. WHY MLB would call down?? No idea, maybe afraid of trends. I seriously hate it when these pro player have on more bling necklaces then a performing rapper.

Here's an article to fire you up...

http://sports.yahoo....03889--mlb.html

Are you f#kin kidding me??? So now its not only the umpires job to remember the rules, constantly study them, and apply them, but now we have to be able to determine which are the very important rules and which ones are not so important????????????? :hopmad::banghead::banghead: :banghead: :FIRE: :FIRE: :FIRE: :FIRE: :FIRE: David Brown

Remember, "new age" journalism is all about getting reads, for Yahoo! and other .coms, it's all about page views and advertising dollars. How ever they can generate buzz is seen as acceptable in modern culture; on the other hand, when an author writes a straightforward, objective piece, very rarely does that generate a comparable level of viewership. For that reason, "new age" journalists tend to take angles that in their estimation will result in the highest quantity of traffic—this is "quantity" journalist, not "quality" journalism.

Doesnt make sense. Baker is looking for a problem. And since when is Joyce a CC? Did I miss something?

Joyce is filling in as CC for John Hirschbeck while he finished recovering from testicular cancer. He's on the DL and expected to return next year-cancer free!

I remembered that after I posted. Good for John he's had a tough life I'm glad he's good to go for 2013.
