Not a strawman. You are exaggerating...whether you realize it or not.

It's the literal definition of a strawman.

You're losing the argument about whether Phelps actually was waving bye to the first baseman (he was) so you're trying to make the argument about whether it took him 10 or 15 seconds to get to 1B in the hopes you can win that one.

There has never been a more clear example of a "strawman" argument.

Not a straw man at all, several worse examples of HR behaviour this season without an ejection... UT game in Athens alone had a UT player pause for 2 seconds, Slam his bat down, then flex.... Not ejected...... Should have been a warning to both teams..... after that, he is on his own.....

Not to mention Blue strike zone was the worst I have seen all season.

I think it's pretty clear that a memo was circulated to umpires for the NCAAT. There have been several ejections in the NCAAT for what never would have been in the regular season. It's very rare to see ejections in college. IIRC there have been three in the NCAAT already. Big 12 POY Landon Hairston was ejected in one of ASU's games for tossing his bat in frustration after a called strike three. Didn't say anything to the umpire or even look back at hm but was tossed

Can't allow something all season, then when the games matter, not issue in game warning....

Should have brought both coaches out and told both teams to cut it out.....

Didn't matter as Phelps back up replacement went yard on the next go round.....

There is no way you’re ok with your team being a pile of figs. You’re embarrassed and showing your arse.

(or you’re just having fun idk. But my god what **** on that team. Your coach )

Not really. The point is that the reason the Lib guy came out is because he said he taunted them. Then he said he yelled something at us that he can't back up. He never said he took too long to first base or whatever. This is you looking at the whole thing and goind on and on about it. There's clear video of one of your guys doing this in the playoff (taking forever while he hoops and hollers) and nothing was done about it. So it's pretty obvious that this is not a thing. Other coach didn't say anything when your guy did it. I don't care. As I told the other Dawg on here last night, none of you are gonna see it any different than you do unless it's just blatantly the wrong call. Keep at it if that's what feeds you today. I'm done. Bring it this weekend.

You absolutely would not.


What the frick is wrong with y’all? There is NO way you watch this shite and think oh man, I need to get really defensive and stick up for this behavior online.

fricking hell, guys. Have a little bit of self respect.

Every single ump got involved during a different section of that homerun trot. Umps were moving between him and players and waving him on every step of the way. The home plate ump literally had to push him out the box to start his trot which is good enough for a warning.

Sure, no one thing was egregious, but by the time he's rounding third the pimping and hand waving and spinning and cussing should have been long since over. It's like the dude was begging to get tossed. You can do any one of those things on a homerun trot and not get tossed, but you can't do all of those things on one homerun trot.

And for the record, I do think it's a shite rule that you have to sit out the next game just for getting ejected in baseball.

I don't think anyone that isn't on the ASU staff or team would argue against this one. He threw the bat 20 feet up in the air in direct response to disagreeing. The ASU shortstop should've probably been tossed in the 8th last night as he dropped his bat and dramatically threw his arms up while yelling directly at the ump after he got K'd looking.

Phelps just lacked awareness.. He'd just been hurried by the home plate ump so he knew they were watching him. I don't think it's the most egregious thing I've ever seen and would've been fine with a warning, but I am also okay with the ejection.

based on how umps have called games all year, I'm not so sure. Like by the rule, yeah you're not wrong, but in college you generally have to do A LOT to get ejected. They typically start with a warning.

For instance, Seth Dardar launched his bat to the moon after a HR against Kentucky this year, did not get ejected

If a bunch of black umps threw the young brotha out, then you know he was doing too much.

You don't think it telling at all that the guy who started this whole argument casually and immediately ducked out of this thread when I called him out on his bullshite and proved him wrong? You didn't have to step into that line of fire, brother.

Not a fan of the behavior but the NCAA cultivated it all year.... Should have been an in game warning to both teams then the ejections start. If you are going zero tolerance it should have been that since all season....

That ump was just in over his head. multiple times 2 pitches in a row hit the same spot and one a strike and one a ball. He was wildly inconsistent on what would be a strike in regular season play....

Surprised the other Umps didn't tell him to issue a warning first.
