Braves and Marlins will have the first female umpire this weekend. Can’t be any worse than these other bozos in the league.

Woooooooooo! We’re doing cool things and not stupid things for once.

Extremely team friendly if he continues getting better.

The question to ask is are they paying her the same wage as the others?

I’m not wearing a damn thing because we’re staying in for our date

I'd go with just the bathrobe. Easy on, easy off. Just ask Hugh Hefner.

They did fire Kendrick Perkins so that gives me hope. Next needs to be Stephen A.

I've always had the mind set that Stephen A is another loud mouth jerk
and I usually change the channel or just not watch that show.

Umpires are usually paid on tenure but I think almost all first year umps get the same rate from what I have read though.

At least we know (or think we know) she won’t make the game about her, getting into arguments with coaches and players.

I knew this would be coming at some point. Makes too much sense. It will become a “tile” like Marvel and Star Wars on Disney+.

I don't want a disgruntled female employee to deal with.

You can always tell the weekend is here without looking bc all
the Marvel movies will be on the same TV channels as usual.

There are still a number of umps like that, Buckner comes to mind, but generally the umpiring across the league has improved the last couple of years, imho. The older guys have a better feel for the critical calls, if they feel the need to influence a game. I agree that a young woman representing her gender as an official should call a fair game. Fair meaning consistent both ways.

Hmmm. Restaurant? Sounds familiar…

Spencer Arrighetti, Astros SP, back from the IL. Pitching with no pitch count. As good as a Deadline trade… or better.

Lol. Haven't done that in about two decades. Dancing Bear is a restaurant. Supposed to be pretty good.
