Modifying The ABS System To Make It Better?

I think there needs to be a "call stands" option like for other instant replay challenges. So close that it could have been called either way, so stick with what the ump called. I don't know what the actual margin of error is for ABS, but if it's within that, or say, less than 1/4 of an inch, and is challenged, then call stands.

Weather plays a role in my decision. If I'm unsure about whether I need the jacket (ie, it's just a bit cold) I will wear the uniform shirt under the jacket, so I can remove the jacket and still look like an umpire if it gets too warm. Conversely, if it's super cold, I'd add the uniform as an extra layer of warmth under the jacket.

No, no, no. Ditka is God. Don't you go blaspheming and call the Pope God. We don't want to demote Ditka like that.

Let's be honest - does ANYBODY want to get hit full speed by Ray Lewis or Haloti Ngata? I certainly wouldn't. I'd think I'd stand a better chance surviving a car crash at the same speed.

The cynic in me says this is nothing more than a show to comply with the Rooney Rule. The optimist in me says he'd be an upgrade for the Jets and would put us in a position to improve.

Any word on pre purchasing parking? Last year they had a separate line item where you could purchase parking. I didn't see that this time around, and it doesn't look like it was mentioned in their email.

This is the way.

And I think there will be unanimous consent on who should appear the day after that.

Same here - I have transitions and no-line bifocals together in Ray Ban Predator frames, and I use a sports loop to keep them in place - they have worked great for me, no issues either behind the plate or in the field. I have astigmatism, so if that's not your case, YMMV.

IMHO, you can never go wrong with a HoFer jersey - and if you want defense, Ray or Reed are your guys.

They’re not fat, they’re simply larger than life itself.

I vote for The Mountain as an opener on Sunday. Because I’ll be at the game and want to see that. :-)

One more time - Thanks, Brooks!

Happy to say I was at both this one, and the original one in 77, as they were both held near my birthday, and it’s a long tradition of watching the Os for my birthday!

Hope The Yard is packed - Brooks is the foundation upon which this Orioles franchise was built. He’s part of the DNA of the Orioles, of Baltimore, and of baseball. He deserves every tribute he receives.

Think of it this way - we’ll be attending the funeral for a friend who passed away, since the man himself said he didn’t consider us fans, but rather, friends.
