A pitcher comes into a baseball game in the first inning, he strikes out 27 straight batters all the way through 9 innings, not a single hit, run, walk, error, interference, or hit-by-pitch was recorded. There were no recording errors. His ERA (earned run average) and WHIP (walks/hits per inning pitched) were both 0.00, his team DID NOT forfeit, yet his team lost the game, why?

Indeed Randy,

I have to back Nikki up on this one. I can't tell you how many people on here make stupid comments for little purpose other than to inflate their own insecure egos.

But, do I point out the fact that they may not have been around this community for a while? No.

Do I point out their inadequecies, leading to their unfounded comments? Not at all.

Do I point out that they are, in all likelihood, compensating for a physical deficiency, or shortcoming? Of course not.

In short, welcome to our humble community, and I hope you make the most of it here!
