There is no "45 degree" rule in MLB. Huge myth. The rule requires the step and throw to a specific base, for both RH and LH pitchers, or for LH's if the right foot goes back past the rubber (which in this case it did not) However, his natural pitching motion started towards home in this sequence prior to bringing his leg out which ended up well down the "area which umps watch"...you see this often from LH's but this was extreme and should have been called a balk, especially in watching his entire motion. There are many others not near as extreme that are called.

The 45 degrees refers to the mythical line MLB referenced years ago to try and regulate the move to first, stating that going beyond that was deceptive- which didnt ultimately change anything. I'm pretty sure most people know there isnt a protractor involved in any of this.There is no "45 degree" rule in MLB. Huge myth.
I think Lavar's great.
Lavar is hilarious, lighten up
Still sticking w/ that hot take, wcc? Forfeiting two games in a row b/c you refuse to leave the court is so funny, that rascal! People need to chill, it's great for the kids/sport!
What a dbag POS.
You and catfagbg always run neck and neck for worst post of the day, but you surged ahead with this one.There is no "45 degree" rule in MLB. Huge myth.

Is no one going to mention that it was Cliff that was the know it all on Cheers and not Norm?
Yeah, the worst of it here is generally occurring with teams I'm not responsible for, but there's always something. The funny thing is, 99% of the time, the kid doesn't care.I hope 08 can vouch for me on this, but in my line of work, one of the rare things I don't like about it is when parents overstep their boundaries. Why wasn't my kid in the graphic, why didn't you write about my kid, why did you leave my kid off the roster on the program by mistake, etc.

-You don't really want to do the SW card right now. Best to time that one for 1st Qtr. Go to million mile secrets, nerd wallet, points guy and do a little research. You do understand that you're not just going to sign up for 2-3 cards and voila you earned an all expense paid trip to Hawaii, right? Unless you're very organized I'd suggest just getting on a few good point earning cards (Saphire, AMEX SPG, Inc) and starting there. Maybe pay for a 1/4 of the trip or something like that.
I read this about 10 minutes ago and in that time found a 3/3 condo on the beach and round trip flights From Louisville for $6700. On Maui.Thanks.
I looked all night and even set up a visit with a travel agency.
Best I could find was all inclusive $1899 a piece for 4 people in Maui but we still had to fly to San Francisco and back home afterward. The round trip to San Fran was $580 a piece and if the points paid for some if not all of that then it would be worth it.
All that said, this is not a guaranteed trip next year just a request from the wife with just ASAP noted at the end. So I'm just doing the leg work on the real cost and liklihood.
And the fact that Sammy WAS a Major League Baseball pitcher. So I'd doubt he'd be listening to balk mechanics from either a 400lb alcoholic accountant or an effin mailman.Is no one going to mention that it was Cliff that was the know it all on Cheers and not Norm?
So says GYERO's version of Norm from Cheers. "You know Sammy it's well known that...."

Possible that you should follow Dave Ramsey's advice and stick with cash.
I can't book the trip for you but coming up with $1200 in miles should be fairly easy over a years time and being new to the game.
Cliff, but whatevs.So says GYERO's version of Norm from Cheers. "You know Sammy it's well known that...."
I hear you. I'd call the resort and see what kind of packages they have though. Reality is that you probably will eat dinner out 2-3 nights and a luau. So you'll be paying for those missed ones if you do all inclusive.Yes I can find cheaper, but I know better and if I'm going to Hawaii cheap probably isn't best. Over heard a few people admit they spent close to 12K and it is the best trip they ever took.
My problem is my family is childish picky about food so going there not really knowing what to spend and where makes all inclusive very apealling. And $1899 was a Hyatt Regency resort which is a safe name to the condo.
This makes sense, and if the $1000 spent that earns the 40K in pts could be on anything and not airline flights then I could easily do that a month on groceries and gas. But if it was flights then I couldn't do it.......I am going to feel like shit for everyone around my kids the whole flight so we usually drive everywhere.
PTI, normally I'd agree with you about the timeshare thing, but my parents did well with theirs and helped all 3 of their kids with anniversary, honeymoon and 1 wedding get away. Also grouped with my aunts and got the whole family to Northern California for my cousins wedding. Not to mention several vacations for themselves, friends and family through the years.
