#1 Cheater

Angelina College, Northwestern, Sterling College, University of Dallas, Lamar PA, LSU-E, Alabama State.....I may have missed a few. I started to suggest that you ask #1 Cheater. He was in full mingle mode on Sunday - shaking hands, kissing babies, and avoiding trash cans. You would have avoided the trash too if yu would have seen what was in those cans. People are nasty!

How about Cheater 1's Field? Everything is good there. No major damage that I can see.

Been in BC for last 4 days.........Not a good situation. My parents had 3 foot in their house. They have been somewhat lucky. I had a contractor called and ready to go to work on Wednesday morning. Like JT said, there are a lot of people that have a long way to go and don't know where to start. Like I said in another post somewhere........if you are bored there are people in BC that need help tearing out sheet rock, moving wet furniture, or just packing what is left of their belongings. Just show up in BC and stop and ask. I am sure you want be turned away!

Wind blowing about 30 -40 here in New Orleans at 3:00pm. I will may watch the hurricane from Pat O'brien's.

Under definitions section: A play on a rule violation on which an umpire may not make a decision until requested by a manager, coach or player. In our stitch we had two runners involved. BU has responsibility on tag up for runner at 2B and PU had the responsibility for tag up for runner at 3B. [R1 at 3rd, R2 at 2nd.] Before the ball was touched, as PU I knew R1 left waaaay early. What R2 did, not my responsibility. Once the ball was caught, F7 threw towards 3rd. R1 was advancing toward HP, R2 toward 3B. F5 catches the ball, while in contact with the base awaiting the runner advancing from 2nd. Seeing R2 retreating to 2B F5 throws the ball to F4, who beat the throw, but is appealed by player, base touched and runner declared out by BU. At this point both teams leave the field, without any appeal being made on the runner from 3rd. Entire team entered the dugout, so R1 out. Just because a ball is thrown to a base means nothing. In my opinion in this stitch, they were attempting to get R2 out on the advance. We cannot assume. If I call her out without an appeal, I have given the defensive an advantage. Are you saying that if R1 realized her mistake and returned to 3rd, after the bag was tagged by the 3B, that you would have called her safe pending a proper appeal? Obviously I'm missing something here, seems pretty straightforward. Why would an APPEAL need to be made on the runner (R1) who left early from 3B? How is that any different than: same situation, line drive caught by 3B, R1 going on contact. 3B steps on 3rd for the DP. No appeal needed. Happens all the time. Dang MC....You beat me to the question!

Like I told you Sunday.....you didn't have an 8:00am game!

Very well put! But I got to watch it rise in the EAST and set in the WEST as well! Nothing like traveling across the great state of Texas - In ONE DAY! :-* You could have gone home.....I had your money!lol

Congrats Ashleigh.......Northwestern got a great athlete and a super young lady.

If Gustav does not get'em, then Hanna might. I thought she was playing for the SEAHAWKS!!!! Good One. I gave you a Krama I wish you hadn't done that. Now he will expect it from everyone! I guess I couldn't give him one since I don't even know what a KRAMA is.

Gustav may win all the games!
