I want the dish!!

You know how not backing down and standing up for what you believe is mostly a good thing?  Well, this isn't one of those times.  Just STFU and grow a pair.  You just don't know when to quit.  You're one of those guys who asks for advice and when you don't like what you hear, you ask someone else until (maybe) you get the answer that satisfies your need for affirmation. 

 

Stop.  Please.

@bam @umpire_scott

Gentlemen, let's all let it go. I have no opinion here, but this isn't the venue. If ya wanna continue, do it through pm.

IOW

KNOCK IT OFF

[bam]

 I don't see "Moderator" anywhere on your profile! 

 

I'm done with him, anyway.  

[Rulekeep]

Really guys.

[umpire_scott]

FWIW I'm not speaking about anyone in particular.  Just something I'd like to see all posters take into consideration.

[TStokes97]

I just use a shock doctor protects me perfectly fine

[Majordave]

I'm  a MOD and I say KNOCK IT OFF!  How's that?

 

@umpire_scott

 

Like in Major League when Charlie Sheen thinks he's been cut and he screams at Skipper Lou Brown and Lou replies.  "I think they've been having some fun with you son!"  It's like that Scott.   So, Lighten up, Francis!   as SGT Hulka said.

 

@bam

 

You've had your fun being a caustic, sarcastic, fun-poking, grumpy old SOB and now you're done. Right?

 

@Thunderheads

 

Keep up the good work trying to make people use search.  Like you, I don't understand why nobody uses that first before asking questions on subjects that have been dealt with over and over.

 

@umpire_scott

 

Search first, then ask if not answered.

 

@Everyone else

 

If there are any more rude, sarcastic, inappropriate comments we will just have to lock this one up and start doing what moderators do, taking action against those who cannot comply.  Keep is collegial please.

@Majordave - got my back, bro! Hahahaha I dig it :D

[JaxRolo]

I didn't know we had a search feature!!! :wave:

[Jocko]

I didn't know we had a search feature!!!

I thought it was a function, not a feature. Features are like noses n cheek bones n stuff. And then there's a feature film. My favorite of all time is Star Wars. I like all the creatures. Speaking of creatures, I think I know why noone can get a clear picture of a sasquatch.....It's because he IS blurry. And while we're talking about creatures and features, I always liked Jaws too. Big freaky shark. I hate sharks. Except the one I use to clean my hardwood floors. The shark steam mop. It does a great job and puts off lots of steam. Did you know steam was the power source precursor to the internal combustion engine. And I use google as my search engine. Search...oh yeah.

C'mon guys. Use the search feature.

:D I knew @JHSump would get it

Dr. Ump :notworthy:

[JHSump]

@Jocko that was great!

   

[Majordave]

@Jocko

On and on and on to the break of dawn......that's you, Chatty Cathy.

[Mr Ump]

Some people are more sensitive than others....some people are more businesslike than others....some people like to have fun...some people like to have fun at others expenses...some people shut up....some people don't know when to shut up.....let's see that about covers everyone....have a good day everyone and remember...life is too short to worry about the small stuff....personally I am just happy to wake up the next day...the rest of the things that people say or do to me are minute at that point....CFS

[Majordave]

Well Said @MrUmp.  You are wise one for sure.

And why the hell are you not wearing a cup on the bases??

Never have and probably never will.  Don't see a need.  I don't wear a cup while golfing either.  As a player the cup is necessary because you are trying to stop balls.  As an umpire I'm trying to get the hell out of their way.  I've never once been hit by a ball in a game anywhere on my body, let alone in a particular place.

 

This MLB umpire was trying to get out of the way too, but to each their own.
