this is why I don't get defensive indifference. What's the harm in at least trying to throw the guy out?

by Matthew on Aug 1, 2007 9:36 PM PDT reply actions  

My bad, my comment was obscure
Every time defensive indifference occurs in a ESPN game Joe Morgan says that it should count as a stolen base.

Almost on cue in every single damn game. I find it funny because when Joe Morgan tries to push his idea or opinion Jon Miller always finds a way to change the subject or pretend to agree with him.
