    Poo. This situation was comparable to Perea's who had to sit 8 games. BS

      He lied about his tax plan...   http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/trackers/2015-10-29/fact-check-study-says-rubio-s-tax-plan-helps-rich-more-than-middle-class-less-than-poorest   He lied about his finances...   http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/10/29/1442388/-Marco-Rubio-s-blatant-lie-about-his-personal-finances-should-worry-you     He's a typical career politician, groomed to lie to get ahead.

    Unless you actually fact check the things Rubio said. So far he's come out as the big liar from last night from politifact.

    Another reason to standardize it imo. Eliminate human error, create a level playing field. I don't understand how that's a bad thing.

    I don't understand how anybody could be against improvement. Baseball fans are weird.

    If it's a closed system, there is no hacking or crashing. The old (current) way is much more fallible. Nobody is saying the new system is perfect. Just that it's billions of times more perfect than the current plan.

      Sorry, I'm not trying to be a smartass.  Asking a serious question.  If a chip goes through a zone, it's recorded.   How is this not an improvement from umpires error?
  13. I like these, I also like the unis we wore in the tourney last year.  They look very clean after minimizing the stripes

    Half the players end up arrested?  Busted.  That's Purdoo math.

    When does an equation make an error?  If a chip goes through a zone, it went through a zone.  It's pretty foolproof.

    Wait...I know that Tony Lee dude.  He's a Matt Painter fan club president.  This is totally a Purdoo slime campaign.

      I agree with most of this.  I disagree with the notion that we can't implement it until we have a finished product.  Implement the things that would be easy to do, tweak it, and finish the rest.   Strike zone would be easiest imo.  Probably football/hockey puck crossing goal line too.  Obviously there are other factors like you mentioned such as down by contact.  I believe that could be fairly easily implemented into the system by chipping clothing.  Maybe not this month, but within 5 years.  Implement when we can.  Funding comes from progress.   The end result would be beautiful.  A bad call by an official cannot cost a deserving team from earning their victory.

    Absolutely. Anywhere where we can as referenced in my post above. I'd even love to chip a hockey puck and each player on a hockey team to be sure on offside blue line situations. The players deserve an even playing field. A poor call by an official should never cost a deserving team a win.

    Ah hah, there's the rub. It's definitely adjustable, but I suppose the human element lies in adjusting it to each batter's stance

      That's because they're looking at the wrong system.  Put up a geofence around the strike zone, put a chip in the ball, it automatically tells you if it goes through the box or not.  No human element needed at all.

    Put a geofence around the strike zone and a chip in the ball. Same with football, put a sensor in the ball to notify us when it crosses the goal line. Put a chip in a basketball so we know when it touches a boundary line. Let's make sports fair and help keep human error from stealing a victory from a deserving team
