And where the hell did "6 challenges a game" come from? Are you privy to some backroom meetings with Bud that we're not aware of?

You idiots just make stuff up. And then when that fails, you return to stuff you made up before and that we've already dealt with.

With MikeT dancing around, wearing his 'tard helmet, posting pictures of kitties clapping.

Please, point out one thing in this thread I've made up. (And no, my fictional anecdote does not count).

Ok, you tell me: how many challenges a game is it you imagine will happen with your silly manager flag system?

So I'm not allowed to list stuff you've made up when answering this question?

You're right: i can't do it. Aside from the stuff you've made up, like a world with manger challenge flags, batting-title-tie scenarios (you even made that one up stupidly: they'd still be tied), etc, you really haven't made all that much up.

They'd still be tied? So if two guys go into the season's final game tied in BA, one goes 3 for 4 and the other goes 4 for 5, they're still tied?

That sums it all up right there. You're an idiot.

And since you're manipulating language, find me ONE example of a FACT in this thread I've made up...ie: something I made up that I didn't present as fiction right off the top.

As for the challenges, I imagine if they go to that system, each manager will get one, two tops. If you think 6, you really are psychotic.

If it's a fact, you didn't make it up, you idiot.

"I know this is a bit of an extreme example, but let's say come the final game of the season, Guy A and Guy B are tied for the BA title. Guy A goes 3 for 4. Guy B is 3 for 4 as well, but has a final at-bat coming up. He hits a ground ball to second base, the throw beats him to first but the ump calls him safe.

Now, what if Guy A and his team protest, saying that call wrongfully gave the BA title to Guy B, and since it was a game-ending call, it should be overturned and Guy A should rightfully get what's his. Nothing to do with the game, but it would give the individual accomplishment to the guy who deserved it. Should that call be overturned as well?"


Tell me my scenario again, you tool. Guy A goes 3 for 4, Guy B is 3 for 4 and has another AB coming up...the safe call makes him 4 for 5.

You...are...a...major...MORON

So it's four - but six would just be psychosis?

Ok. Whatever.

So each manager gets 324/season, and we all sit through that - and roughly half of them will be wastes of time - but it would be the height of foolishness to go back and end a game CORRECTLY when video proof shows that it ended? Once in a blue moon?

Wow...it's like the Twilight Zone in here. It's like jtprimate has taken over bosuxballs' body.

You're just digging yourself deeper, little man. It's actually getting sad to watch.

I believe it has already been stated (but you choose to ignore) that 80% or so of those challenges would go unused, so it would be moot anyway. The ones that would get challenged would be the "disasterous" calls you want reversed anyway. Make up your mind.

Still waiting for you to address this one, since you accuse everyone else of not manning up to their idiotic comments.

Still think they're tied? Dumbass.
