OT:...and now for something completely different, a little baseball humor...
(DrBob, please let me know if this steps over the profanity line. Actually, I'm guessing that this story has been "cleaned up" a bit at the end.)
Major league umpire Richie Garcia talked about calling a game with Don Zimmer coaching from the dugout.
Zimmer, the great coach, was working the bench for the Yankees.
Garcia recalled that Zimmer was, as usual, sitting at the end of the dugout bench talking loudly. Apparently this time he was giving Garcia a hard time over his calls. "Where was that pitch at?" he would holler from the dugout. "Where was that pitch at?"
Finally, during a break between innings, Garcia motioned to Zimmer to come over. When Zimmer stood there, Garcia asked, "Don, don't you know it's incorrect to end a sentence with a preposition?"
Zimmer stared back at the umpire. "OK Garcia," he snarled. "Where was that ball at, butthead?" |
