Amazing.

I had to look up who he divorced, but that is hilarious.

I hope it has really good articles for the next 3 years.

Indeed it is.

Did anybody vote for Plex?!?!

Actually, I was being dead serious.

I found this pretty hilarious. Thanks.

Congratulations. You think you're awesome. And in life, what more is there?

What does "vibe with previous reports" mean?

Well, if we're dealing in generalities and stereotypes, how many extremely successful businesspeople that grow the economy do you know who are liberal?

Nuh uh. No way. I just spent a half hour looking over this site and they do NOT sell a single hard drive!

I'm sorry—you're right. I didn't make myself clear. That is not a part of the technical rule. That is how umpires are taught to observe the rule. Just like they are given guidelines about all judgment call rules.

No, he wasn't. His feet never stopped moving. He has to be "camped" underneath the ball, which he never was. Could he, as a person playing this game his whole life, reached out and caught it? Yes, of course. We know that, but an umpire is never supposed to assume that. But that is not how the rule is supposed to

You're right. Ordinary requires it to be a routine play at the time of the call, meaning the player was "camped" under the ball. He was not, which is why the call was late, and why it dropped.

You do not assume talent in interpreting the rules. That is an overriding rule. They have to be very clearly under the ball, not running to it.

By definition, you do not assume talent in MLB rules. That is why, for example, a rule can never assume a double play. Even when we, as fans, have seen it turn into a double play 100 times. That being the hypothetical.

Well, at least it doesn't have postseason implications.
