Ironically, the two guys who are on the replay headsets are the guys that, IMHO, need to step aside and let a couple younger bucks step up.  #41 & #61

1. The Cardinals' announcers on TV have to be the worst in MLB. Dan McLaughlin is a complete douche nozzle. He's a paid cheerleader and Hrabosky is clueless. 

 

2. I'm not sure how Meals missed that.

He must have blinked at the wrong moment.

Maybe you could take their place!

This brings me back to Jerry Meals' call in the Pirates game.  I still don't think that was blown...

....was that before, or after Meals admitted he kicked it???

That was before he admitted it, but I got the feeling he was pressured into "admitting" he was wrong by MLB.  If he had called him safe and they had replay review back then, I'm not convinced it would be overturned.  I remember people saying at the time that if they had applied NFL replay requirements (because MLB ones didn't exist), it would have been impossible to overturn...

I'd love to.  But, I don't fall into the "young buck" category.
