MLent - interesting point about replay challenges. I might predict that umpiring gets automated and replays won't be around all that long. The automated umpiring will be so accurate that replays will be rare. It will change the game...making even more of a gentleman's sport than it has become. So much less managers arguing calls and having crazy antics on the field. I'll miss that. Gotta love a Lou Pinella or Earl Weaver or Billy Martin tirade.

wow, maybe the best three arguers, billy might punch you, lou may kill you, earl would give up and throw stuff, francona spit tobacco in ur face
