Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 04:01 PM |
Thanks for the line up, but I think you have an error in the Yankee line up. I think the first baseman is actually Thong Giambi.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 05:04 PM |
Very nice morning today, really rainy and windy this afternoon and actually nice again now, though chilly.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 05:28 PM |
The Yankees' roster has been kind of looking like a hockey team's recently, keeping Duncan and Farnsworth aboard in case they need a bully.
|
metirish May 18 2008 05:34 PM |
|
Yeah I was up at that time, not by choice mind( feeding time). The skies here in the Bronx look OK right now , it's nice out.
|
G-Fafif May 18 2008 05:40 PM |
Yankees suck.
|
metirish May 18 2008 05:47 PM |
|
I like how you think.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 05:54 PM |
|
It's inherent in being a Yankee.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:00 PM |
I detest Steve Phillips. Not really sure why.
|
metirish May 18 2008 06:09 PM |
I'm nervous , come on you Mets.
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 06:10 PM |
Let's Go Mets!!!
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 06:11 PM |
Reyes opens the game with a ground out Wang to thong.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:12 PM |
I'm glad the Yanq fans finally got what they want and don't have ARod playing.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:17 PM |
|
Don't be nervous when they have Giambi hitting fifth.
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 06:19 PM |
Jeter throws out Wright on a soft groundball and Morgan and Miller get chapped lips kissing Capt. Intangibles ass. Granted his third baseman did miss the ball cutting acrtoss in front of Jeter, but it definitely wasn't a play worthy of effusive praise.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:22 PM |
I'd love to switch to radio.
|
KC May 18 2008 06:24 PM |
They must have said Jeter at least 60 times and it's only 1 2/3's in.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:25 PM |
Perez looking wild?
|
metirish May 18 2008 06:32 PM |
Really liked that exchange between Miller and Morgan regarding the pick by Giambi on the Cano throw, Joe made me laugh.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 06:33 PM |
I saw a dopey Old Spice commercial today where a guy is playing softball and he goes into a head first slide from second to home. It made me think of Jeter's slide yesterday--except that the guy in the commercial actually touched the base.
|
KC May 18 2008 06:35 PM |
"Yankee Stadium deserves Alou" - Joe Morgan
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:37 PM |
Morgan explaining that leadoff walks hurt you more than two-out walks.
|
themetfairy May 18 2008 06:37 PM |
|
Does he ever not look wild?
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:37 PM |

Yes
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 06:39 PM |
|
Wow. I thought he said this But then I thought, "He really can't say something that ..... stupid, even if it is Joe Morgan." That said, there are a lot of things Yankee Stadium deserves.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 06:40 PM |
The Yankees' patch depicts a part of that stadium that hasn't existed for 35 years.
|
KC May 18 2008 06:41 PM |
Jeter farts in dugout.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 06:41 PM |
Best. Trade. Ever.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:41 PM |
I may be falling in love with Ryan Church.
|
metirish May 18 2008 06:42 PM |
Nice catch there Church .
|
Zvon May 18 2008 06:42 PM |
Church with the grab!
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 06:43 PM |
Yea! Zvon's in the house. Now we can start hitting homers.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 06:43 PM |
I don't want to think about where the Mets would be without the trade that many of us (including me) weren't happy about.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 06:44 PM |
|
You were missed yesterday Zvon--twice!
|
metirish May 18 2008 06:45 PM |

I loved it form the get go , lets get that right in retrospect.

Elster88 May 18 2008 06:46 PM |
God isn't there anything about baseball we can talk about? Do we have to talk about Wagner's postgame antics? Wasn't that like three weeks ago?
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 06:48 PM |
You're seeing what those of us from out of NY go through every single road game... the rehash of the Mets woes, the rehash of the you-know-what... it's why I go through the trouble of pausing the game on my DVR and trying to time the FAN internet feed to the picture. I'll be doing it on Tuesday.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 06:48 PM |

Lol. Nice to be missed. Re: Morgan : who introduced the word accountability into the Wagner whining episode?
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 06:49 PM |
Good thing for the parents in the Cialis commercial that their daughter didn't walk in the door and surprise them 10 minutes later!
|
metirish May 18 2008 06:50 PM |
I really don't like Cano and his look at me I'm so fucking cool how I noncholant this throw to first base.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 06:54 PM |
Phew! Thank you, Carlos.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:54 PM |
|
I feel like you're reaching a little there. I like Cano cuz he's hitting .200.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 06:54 PM |
Perez pulls a Cano and Delgado pulls a Giambi!
|
apmorris May 18 2008 06:56 PM |
Whats Johan doing in Boston?
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 06:56 PM |

Oooh great idea. I'm gonna try that.

Lead off double for Reyes.

Dammit.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 07:00 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on May 18 2008 07:00 PM |
ARGH! More bad baserunning by the Mets. Why didn't he try to get into a rundown so Marlon could get to 2d?
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:00 PM |
Ugh.
|
apmorris May 18 2008 07:00 PM |
"You're suppose to run back"
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:01 PM |
Morgan's all over Anderson, but the guy hit it hard up the middle.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:02 PM |
It really seems like whenever they can't think of something to say they just compliment Jeter.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:02 PM |
|
Well, I'd say that's typical Yankee nonsense, but our patch depicts a Shea exeterior from decades ago.
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:02 PM |
Miller thought Jeter made a good play on the Reyes play......I can't believe I am seeing group sex on ESPN.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:03 PM |
|
LOL
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:04 PM |

You mean the patch that is half a view from when it opened and half with a view from today? That's really different that what the Yankees are doing.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:04 PM |
Is Miller the one pronouncing Beltran correctly? Or is it everyone else?
|
apmorris May 18 2008 07:04 PM |
Jeter, Great. (repeat often)
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:05 PM |
Loaded for Church. Color me happy.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:05 PM |
Ill settle for plating any of these three guys on base at this point.
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:05 PM |
|
Miller is correct.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:06 PM |
Bring it on, Ryan.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:06 PM |
NO! safe! YEA!
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:06 PM |
Jeter didn't make the play.....
|
apmorris May 18 2008 07:06 PM |
Great play by Jeter
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:06 PM |
Yes!
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:07 PM |
LOL.......good play by Jeter....
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:08 PM |
Moises, free my people from the bases.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:08 PM |
MOISES!!!!!
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:08 PM |
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:09 PM |
Even when the Mets do something well, Morgan can't acknowledge it.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:09 PM |
Mets got a lucky break on Alou's hit.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:10 PM |
WHAT!
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:10 PM |
That's a home run , fuck you.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:10 PM |
We're going to get hosed here.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:10 PM |
Unbelievable. Can we get instant replay for baseball yet.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:11 PM |
Come on, Blue. Do the right thing.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:12 PM |
I'm getting naked and running onto the field in protest. Who's with me?
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:12 PM |
My last Dooky graphic, may as well use it.
|
TheOldMole May 18 2008 07:13 PM |
Jessica Simpson.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:13 PM |
This is three runs here. HoJo, get out there and show some leadership.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:13 PM |
Who just got thrown out?
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:13 PM |
I can't freaking believe that we just got robbed of a three-run home run.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:13 PM |
Manuel, you're good, too.
|
apmorris May 18 2008 07:15 PM |
The umps listen to Jeter (he's great)
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 07:15 PM |
Angel Hernandez welcomes Mike Riley into the Circle of Hell.
|
metsmarathon May 18 2008 07:16 PM |
and of course, joe morgan thinks that this is exactly the kind of situation that would make instant replay untenable as it could slow the game...
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:16 PM |
On the bright side, Wang is burning up a lot of pitches.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:17 PM |
Delgado comes thru despite getting totally ripped off!
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:17 PM |
|
Wouldn't work in that situation Morgan says.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:17 PM |
|
Thing is, Riley ("Reilly"?) got the call correctly. He just caved too easily on the consultation. Good for getting the call right, but a crew chief should be a better leader.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:18 PM |
Jeter thinks Reyes shot from yesterday was foul, too.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:19 PM |
||
Morgan, as is sadly typical, is wrong.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 07:19 PM |
The game wouldn't be slowed down to the extent that Morgan fears if replay was only used for fair/foul calls on potential homers.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 07:23 PM |
That was a pretty eventful inning. The Gods owe us two runs.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:26 PM |
What the heck is Morgan's "call him a journalist, not a reporter?"
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:27 PM |
That was so freaking foul.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 07:27 PM |
Now I'm pissed.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:28 PM |
That call. THAT CALL!
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:28 PM |
I really, really like that trade.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:31 PM |
From firejoemorgan.com: Kurt (NYC): What are your overall thoughts on the Mets this season?
|
Zvon May 18 2008 07:32 PM |
Interesting thing, that space between the line on the wall and the foul pole, but they should take into consideration the angle both are from the plate.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:35 PM |
|
Also the fact that the fair side of the white line should line up with the foul side of the foul pole? Regardless, you're giving them too much credit expecting them to take the angle into consideration.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 07:37 PM |
These retards are going to talk about the foul pole being in the "wrong" place for the rest of the game aren't they?
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 07:39 PM |
Stepped out for a late desert run with my wife and daughter. I insisted we go somewhere with a TV so I could keep tabs on the game. I didn't like the hose job Delgado got on his home run down the line. The Mrs. had to ask me to lower my voice - I believe there were people staring at us.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:39 PM |
Call me Steve Naïve, but I'm going to call that Oliver Perez's Desgnated Meltdown Inning and believe we're going to be OK.
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:40 PM |
Jeter looking smooth and cool out there huh?

Zvon May 18 2008 07:41 PM |

Well, there must be accountability.....on the field..... What really blew my mind was hearing Morgan say, regarding Wagner's sound bite,..."I think he was intending to be funny.I can see the humor in that."
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:41 PM |
|
I was thinking as the inning was going that Ollie was in the dugout for a long time , I think that played a prt in what happened.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:41 PM |
On the bright side, I like that they're sending home the message -- with a sledgehammer -- that the umps blew the call.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:42 PM |
|
That would be a start.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 07:45 PM |
Ollie needs a whiff here on Abreu

Yankee Stadium needs some freaking foul territory.

metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:49 PM |

As you wish!

KC May 18 2008 07:49 PM |
They figured out the camera angle and the foul pole thing.

|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 07:51 PM |

That's funny. Just before that swing I told Ms. Bucket that I could turn the game off and go to bed if Delgado hit it out. He did, yet I can't.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 07:52 PM |
I checked John Delcos' board to see the reaction to The Call. I found this gem:
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 07:52 PM |
Oh, Clutchy McClutchpants. Couldn't you have done more?
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 07:53 PM |
Nice job, Ollie. Got it done.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:55 PM |
I accidentally had the Yankee radiocast on for exactly two seconds and heard "It's two-two to... The Captain."
|
Fman99 May 18 2008 07:55 PM |
Hard to believe Capt. Fantastic couldn't et that run in.
|
metirish May 18 2008 07:55 PM |

It's the curvature of the wall Joe said , and the curvature of the earth Miller piped in with. Love you Ryan.

Now THAT is a bomb!

Wow, who knew "Broken Hearts for You and Me" was the B-side of the Japanese 12-inch of "Boom-Boom"?

Morgan: You can't fault the umpire.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 07:58 PM |
Now they're saying you "can't blame the umpires" on Delgado's blown call.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 07:58 PM |
|
Fman deserves a nice parting gift from Rice-a-Roni.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:00 PM |
It also cracks me up that they're showing a large spot where the paint has been scraped off the top of the wall like that is part of the stripe painted on the fence.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 08:01 PM |
You know who though the Mike Riley made a great call? Rich Garcia:
|
Fman99 May 18 2008 08:02 PM |
Hey it's a profile on Hank "Big Dumb Cunt" Steinbrenner.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:02 PM |
I would love it if the Yanqs overpaid Sabathia after the season. He has Bartolo Colon, Redux written all over him.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:03 PM |
Joe Morgan feels the Yankees didn't need Santana. He is never right.

To Joe the minor leagues is like a box of chocolates .
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 08:05 PM |
I would like to take this opportunity to give "props" to my wife... we watch Desperate Housewives together on Sunday nights (it's what we do)... tonight is the season finale and when she heard that the Mets were playing the MFYs on Sunday night, she didn't even ask if we were going to watch or complain about not watching.
|
Fman99 May 18 2008 08:05 PM |
Holy fuck. Nice of the YES network to loan their best apologist scriptwriters to ESPN for the night.

I'm sure Joe has ruined a few roommate's housecoats in his day.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:06 PM |
So does Giambi even get signed next year? Is there a market for a roid-tainted DH hitting below the Mendoza line?
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:07 PM |
Perez hits Thongman.

Fuck yeah he goes into the seventh.

seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:19 PM |
Wang did a "good job of keeping them in the ballgame"? Come on, Joe. Seriously? Five -- shoulda been seven -- runs in seven innings? That's not good, dipwad.
|
metirish May 18 2008 08:20 PM |
Great play by Reyes right there , looking smooth and cool in the field.
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 08:20 PM |
Morgan going on about how Wang has done it again by going 6 or more innings and giving his team a chance by keeping them in the game.

You can't play the umps , blame Steve Bartman.
|
Fman99 May 18 2008 08:22 PM |
Hey did you guys know that the Yankees are getting a new stadium?
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:23 PM |
That new Yankee ballpark is one butt-assed ugly stadium.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:23 PM |
Nice smooth seventh.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 08:24 PM |
I'm willing to go with Ollie in the eighth. I'll settle for Feliciano. It's lefty-lefty-Superhero-lefty-lefty.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 08:24 PM |

I'd like to buy him a drink there and maybe let him do me afterward.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:26 PM |
Jeter had to touch David's ass with the tag even though he was already on the bag, didn't he? Pervert.
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 08:27 PM |
Jeter applying the tag 40 seconds after Wright slides in.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:27 PM |
Unorthodox sac, but it got the job done...

Morgan can't even concede that we can do a sac-fly properly.

apmorris May 18 2008 08:32 PM |
WHen did Joe Morgan lose his mind?

Wright refuses to lose.
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2008 08:32 PM |
Wright getting a little fist-pumpy there.
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 08:33 PM |
Replay shows that Wright's foot was still in contact with the bag when Abreu made the catch.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:33 PM |
"You know, Jon, I saw David Wright just might be doing steroids right there."
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:34 PM |
Joe's actually disappointed they didn't appeal to third.

Got to credit Wong here , he was brilliant all night , for the 100th game in a row he's pitched into the eight inning.
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 08:34 PM |
Since when does a play-by-play guy act as a DJ?
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:34 PM |
Fuck it let him pitch the eighth.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:35 PM |
YES!
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:35 PM |
"His upper body left too soon, but not his feet."
|
metirish May 18 2008 08:35 PM |
7 - 2 Mets , did Morgan leave the booth?
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:36 PM |
|
Including Delgado's home run and the guy who Schneider just drove in he gave up nine runs.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:36 PM |
I want to win this game like 14-2, because I want to hear Joe Morgan cry on live television.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:37 PM |
|
I'll defend him here, he was trying to say that his upper body got moving before the catch but his foot held the back long enough. Actually seeing he is a professional broadcaster he should be able to articulate that so people can understand what the hell he is trying to say.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:37 PM |
|
Bad ass! But the thing is, Morgan would praise Jeter for preventing them from scoring 15.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:38 PM |
They keep showing the sac fly reply, ostensibly to indicate their explanation of umpire positioning, but really because they're trying to find a replay that shows Wright leaving early, so they can send the tape to the commissioner's office to show how there's a conspiracy against the Yankees.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:38 PM |
I am really enjoying this.

Wouldn't it be great to have the yankees way out when the All-Star Game comes around.

FUCK YEAH BABY!

The only -- and mean only -- downside to this is that they'll probably wear the black jerseys all the time now.

You gotta love a national television ass-pounding of the stupid Yankees.

Including Delgado's home run we're at 13 now.

I guess Willie wants Ollie to pitch the 8th to save the pen for the DH on Tuesday.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:45 PM |
|
Thought I saw him poke his head in here earlier.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:45 PM |
Now that's a shortstop.

Why is Peter Gammons purple?

Lefties vs. Perez: 1-13.

Elster88 May 18 2008 08:46 PM |
Gammons reporting that White Daddy says that Pedro's going to throw 5 innings, 80 pitc.hes and that Pedro will be back before July.

metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:46 PM |
Nice play, Jose!!!
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:46 PM |
Fuck it let him pitch the ninth.

"One thing about Pedro is that he knows how to pitch, Jon."

1-14.

Elster88 May 18 2008 08:47 PM |
Can someone explain why Perez is getting pulled in the middle of an inning?

Gotta get Smitty in there. If I've seen Jeter hit a nine-run homer once, I've seen it a thousand times.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:48 PM |
You know they're going to come back from commercial with some hoo-hah about how Jeter's so clutch that you have to bring in the righty so he doesn't start a rally.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:49 PM |

I got wood earlier from Theoldmoles KaBOOM.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 08:50 PM |
Whenever Jeter watches a ball go by I think of Batting Stances Guy.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:52 PM |
They spend five innings telling how they blew the call, now they're saying how difficult it was, and the ball "skimmed" the pole? It bleeping CLANKED off the thing!
|
themetfairy May 18 2008 08:52 PM |
It's not that Delgado made a nice scoop. It's that he has a big glove.
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 08:54 PM |
"That glove should be illegal, Jon. Derek Jeter should be safe on that play."
|
metirish May 18 2008 08:54 PM |
WTF is Morgan talking about?
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 08:54 PM |

OK, now you're making shit up, right?
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:55 PM |
Did a single word of that Jeter/Reyes football thing make any sense?
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 08:55 PM |
But can they dance to the new 3 Doors Down album that "drops" on Tuesday?

Yes.

You can't play shortstop if you can't dance.....

And he's GOING BACK to it!

Very nice play by Melky in CF robbing Church of extra bases.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 08:58 PM |
Church robbed!
|
AG/DC May 18 2008 08:59 PM |
ONly the second strikeout by a Met batter.
|
Zvon May 18 2008 08:59 PM |
AWWW. Cabrera steals from Church.
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 08:59 PM |
Church smokes one again, but Cabrerra makes a great catch to rob him of extra bases.

But is what seawolf said really that much crazier than the football/dancing thing? Why does this man have a job?
|
seawolf17 May 18 2008 09:01 PM |
Because he has pictures of Bud Selig in Giambi's thong.
|
Elster88 May 18 2008 09:01 PM |
Show's ERA is 1.50 and a WHIP of 1?
|
bmfc1 May 18 2008 09:02 PM |
The Daily News talked with the guy in the LF corner:
|
Rockin' Doc May 18 2008 09:03 PM |
Giambi might want to think about trading in his thong for a flak jacket.
|
metsguyinmichigan May 18 2008 09:03 PM |
If they're gonna hit somebody, hit Jeter. Just on principle. Giambi's just thrilled to get on base.

Mets catch the second-place Phils, sitting a game out, after Philadelphia has nothing to show for themselves afer losing a 5:37 rainslogger to Toronto.

I'm sure that satisfies MLB and that there will be no repercussions, such as his not ump'ing the All-Star Game or the playoffs. Delgado misses a homerun and 2 RBI when he will be seeking a new contract. And my fantasy team misses the same stats as well--if I finish out of the money because of one homerun and/or two RBI, I will send a bill to Bob Davidson.
|
themetfairy May 19 2008 06:24 AM |
It's not the mistake per se - blow calls happen. I'm pissed off over the procedural issues. For a change, Joe Morgan was absolutely right about something - an umpire should never overcall another ump's decision unless he clearly saw that it was wrong. Obviously, none of these bozos were able to see where the ball hit, so they had no business at all overturning the third base umpire's call.
|
bmfc1 May 19 2008 06:26 AM |
|
This is a good point, TMF. Why did an ump farther from the ball overrule the call?
|
themetfairy May 19 2008 06:35 AM |
Because Captain Intangibles protested.

AG/DC May 19 2008 07:05 AM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on May 19 2008 08:19 AM |
Well, in this regard, I go back to Reilly as crew chief. If an inferior questions your judgment, you'd better hear his case carefully, look him in the eye, and be certain he or she more informatoin than you. Any doubt at all, and Reilly's got to go with himself as the man whose call it is, the man in position, and the chief. He yielded to his colleagues' lesser judgment in a matter of seconds.
|
seawolf17 May 19 2008 08:17 AM |
Word from the Boomer & Carton was that Damon was waving it foul also, and I guess he was the closest person on the field to the play. Don't know if that played a factor.
