Four times out of five the linesman gets a better view of the ball near him than the player himself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The angle from which the line and ball are seen makes a tremendous difference in the call, and the player who is inclined to fret inwardly about decisions should realize this.
When the line started to blur between the fans and the players, sometimes things can get ugly.
The man with the ball is responsible for what happens to the ball.
I very rarely watch anybody swing. All I do is follow where the ball goes.
Behind every kick of the ball there has to be a thought.
When you take a pitch and line it somewhere, it's like you've thought of something and put it there with beautiful clarity.
See the ball; hit the ball.
If you really want to get it more exciting, no linesmen. And have the players call their lines. That would make the game more exciting, I promise you. It would be awesome.
You should never get set over the ball and then aim your putter face. If you do it in that order, you can easily lose sight of your intended line. Instead, aim the face down your line first, then settle your body into position.
People come out to see the players. When do you see a manager anyway? When he's out on the field arguing with the umpires, making a fool of himself and you know you can't win, and when he brings out the line-up card.
