Never forget kids - you can't use your closer in a tie game on the road!

That call at first that effected the outcome of the game shouldn't be tolerated. He was clearly out on replay but the call stood anyway and Braves of course lose by a run in extras. If that isn't room for protesting a game I don't know what is.
If I were Fredi I'd still be going crazy about it...

When you play in the pro league like I had and your coach just let things go, it effects your team. I screamed at my coach to do something, I couldn't afford absorbing another technical foul bitching at the refs, they were itching to get me after me doing the American way of doing justice, Barkley like. After about six games he got a clue to argue, not the best I admit, but it rally the troops and I did not have to do it and getting technical fouls in the process. So yes, barking at the umps and getting in their face does change the complexion. In college basketball it helps, you get make up calls and in baseball the umpire might think differently on the strike zone.
Trust me, it works and I know.

I didn't know where to ask this, so I'll just ask it here. Does anyone know if Striker42 ever came over here from Scout when a lot of us did? I noticed he still posts there, albeit rarely, but I don't recall seeing him here unless under a different username. I always liked his posts back in the day so just curious.

And as I look it up I see that his last post was indeed from 10/02/13.
By the way, there is a member list under the community tab where you can go to find out these things.

It's no problem, I'm just letting you know.

No game day thread?
I just put one up.
