Sunday, September 21, Even umpires can use some help By Dr. Walt Menninger Most of our religions acknowledge that human beings have frailties. Only God is perfect Rjt,ht? Wrong! So is the umpire or . referee. Sports fans won't really ? agree wnh that. We like to criticize the referee ior w hat we believe are obvious errors. A Until recently, however, it was $ T , just our opinion versus the &i referees, and we had the disadvantage of being way up in the stands, while the referee was L M; right on tup of the action. I)r. Menninger Then came television with its zoom lens and instant replay. This aided the fans at homo, but those in the stands still had the same dsudvantage. Now the instant replay is on the screens of our newest stadiums. And what happens? In New Oileans' magnificent Superdome, booing delayed an exhibition game Sumts: the opening kirhnff was shown on the giant in: tant repiav screens hanging above the field It was obvious the ball cuiner had been tripped, and the officials had not noticed it A turor ei opted in the stands saw another ca ,e of error this summer during a when an umpire called the man and the instant replav showed him to be obviously out With the benetit of that "extra" out. the Milwaukee Brewers sc wed two nms and eventually won the game by that margin, beating star Cahfurnin Angels' pitcher Nolan Ryan 1 leleviwd baseball game sf Missed Call PORTRAITS FOR ALL OCCASIONS: PASSPORTS, BUSINESS, MISSIONARY V!1 ton nfen v must deny our frut"s ;id limitations We must present oursoU es to be perfec t rlo acknowledge lout we might have made a im.takn know tuo many people is seen as something awful who art a if they never rank a mistake Get into ar argument with one, and ou ore the one who is w rung, llicir way is the w ay the u idea is the idi i. etc 1 LOW PRICES j TWO dispute Ck ...
